The Agricultural Potential Of Owingup Swamp. 1. Soil Survey Of Owingup Swamp. 2. Comparison Of Owingup And Grasmere Swamps, L T. Jones, C V. Malcolm, James P. Fallon, Department Of Agriculture And Food, Western Australia
Technical Bulletins
The two swamps, Owingup and Grasmere are practically identical with regard to soil conditions. Grasmere swamp however has been cleared and used for agriculture for some 60 years while Owingup swamp is as yet unalientated. Soils on both swamps consist of mainly organic diatomaceous clay. Findings of the survey indicate that some 2000 acres at Owingup swamp would be suitable for vegetable growing following clearing and draining.

The Long Term Effects Of Frequent Cropping, Stanley Thomas Smith
The Long Term Effects Of Frequent Cropping, Stanley Thomas Smith
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
AGRICULTURALLY speaking, few Western Australian soils are more than 50 years old. We have the responsibility of preserving them for farming—not for one man's lifetime, but for centuries.
The aim of this article is to demonstrate that cropping and cultural practices do have some effects on the soil, and that these effects should be considered when choosing a farm rotation.

Continuous Cropping Trials, M G. Mason
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
The aims of the trials at Binnu, Chapman, Wongan Hills, Avondale and Merredin were:
- To determine whether the application of nitgrogen and fertilisers can maintain yields under a "continuous cropping" system
- To compare the merits of three sources of nitrogen for this purpose.
- To determine the maintenance dressing of superphosphate under this system and the need for supplementary fertilisers.
Trial 61A2
There have been no great problems with this trial. for a number of years the plots have required chemical spraying to control wild oats which had built up. In 1968 and 1969 some plots were soil sampled to determine …

Nitrogen Use On First Crops After Legume Pasture, M G. Mason
Nitrogen Use On First Crops After Legume Pasture, M G. Mason
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
Apart from the normal factors affecting response of cereals to nitrogen fertilizers, i.e. length of growing season, rainfall, soil type etc, there are other factors which affect the response after a legume pasture. these factors include length of the previous legume phase and how good was the stand of legumes. Unfortunately for most of the trials in the past, involving the use of nitrogen on first crops after legumes, this information is not available.

Soil And Tissue Testing For Potassium., Department Of Agriculture And Food, Western Australia
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
No meaningful conclusions can be drawn until the multiple regression analysis comparing soil and plant parameters with level of response has been completed. Similarly it is extremely dangerious to extrapolate results obtained from any one experiement in a particular district to the general farm situation. In addition these results represent only 1 rather atypical season and so need to be verified by additional calibration trials. in 1973 (40) and 1974 (20).

Time Of Application Of Solid Nitrogen Fertilisers., M G. Mason
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
The current recommendations for time of application of soild nitrogen fertilisers such as urea, ammonium nitrate and sulphate of ammonia are:
Zone A: These fertilisers should be applied as close to seeding as possible.
Zone B: As for zone A except on very sandy soils which are very prone to leaching, where application can be delayed 2-3 weeks.
Zone C: Applications should be delayed about 3 weeks after seeding.

Pasture : Corner-Stone Of Soil Conservation, W J. Burdass
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
LEGUME PASTURE is the basis of prosperity in farming in the agricultural areas of Western Australia.
The livestock industry could not thrive without it and it also maintains fertility and soil structure for the cereal growing industry.
It is, in fact, the comer-stone on which the soil conservation conscious farmer rests his soil management.
Superphosphate For Wheatbelt Pastures : Rates Of Application, Walter Jacob Cox
Superphosphate For Wheatbelt Pastures : Rates Of Application, Walter Jacob Cox
Journal of the Department of Agriculture, Western Australia, Series 4
BECAUSE Western Australian soils are low in phosphorus, frequent applications of superphosphate are required for both crop and pasture production. The recommended rates are determined from the results of field experiments that test different quantities of super and measure the extra yield.
This article discusses the recommended rates of superphosphate in relation to soil type and superphosphate history. Methods of application and time of topdressing are also discussed.

Ammonium Nitrate Vs Urea, M G. Mason
Ammonium Nitrate Vs Urea, M G. Mason
Experimental Summaries - Plant Research
Ammonium nitrate is a source of nitrogen containing half
its nitrogen in the ammonium form and half in the nitrate form.
Some properties are set out in comparison with urea in the
following table.
Ammonium nitrate has an advantage over urea in that it can
be topdressed onto the surface of the soil and left uncovered
without a danger of loss of nitrogen to the atmosphere. When urea
is left uncovered on the surface of the soil losses of nitrogen occur
through volatilisation of ammonia during the hydrolysis of the urea.
Such losses with ammonium nitrate are only likely to …
