Agzone 4 (north and eastern wheatbelt) - variety performance in Western Australia (2009-13)

Summary

Review production value graphs for wheat varieties to support you with variety selection.

You can get an indication of how much more a variety is likely to yield in kilograms per hectare (kg/ha) compared to other varieties in that environment.

It also provides an indication of the stability of the variety over a number of locations and years within an agzone or region.

The analysis is based on Grains Research Development Corporation’s (GRDC’s) National Variety Trials (NVT) from 2009–13. It is recommended you consider a number of locations and years.

NVT locations included in this report are:

  • Binnu, Buntine, Cadoux, Mullewa and Pithara in the northern districts of agzone 4
  • Kellerberrin, Merredin, Mukinbudin, Narembeen and Wyalkatchem in the eastern districts of agzone 4

Further information

When using PVs for variety selection decisions it is recommended that you consider not just a single environment, but a number of environments, both in terms of location (trial site) and season (trial year). This gives an indication of the stability of a varieties performance over a range of condition

The locations displayed are based on the agzone however additional sites may have been included as they will have relevance from a regional or district perspective.

To identify the type of environment experienced at that site and year, additional information for each NVT site has been provided. At present the trial sowing date, growing season rainfall, previous crop history and soil pH are reported.

Site correlation is a relativity measure that is included in the reporting. It indicates how the variety ranking of the trial resembles neighbouring trial result rankings within the current region and year.
