Studies on the field establishment of Russell lupin (Lupinus polyphyllus x Lupinus arboreus).
(Lincoln University, 1990)
Three field experiments in 1988 and 1989 evaluated the agronomic factors affecting the emergence and establishment of Russell lupin (Lupinus polyphyllus X L. arboreus). The first experiment in 1988 looked at the combined ...
Nitrogen and irrigation effects on yield and quality of potatoes (Solanum tuberosum L.)
(Lincoln University, 1999)
The link between potato yield and quality was examined using experiments planted in 1985/86 (Experiment 1), 1987/88 (Experiment 2) and two planted in 1993/94 (Experiment 3 and 4) with the cultivar Ilam Hardy. The main aim ...
Yield-quality relationships in some New Zealand wheat cultivars
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1987)
In May 1985, four cultivars of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.): Rongotea, Oroua, Weka and Otane were sown into a Templeton silt loam. Two levels of early nitrogen were applied at the mid-tillering stage; nil N or 112 kg N ...
Allelopathic effects of white clover (Trifolium repens L.) on pasture species in high country environments
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1980)
The allelopathic activity of white clover Trifolium repens L. 'Grasslands Huia' on the germination and establishment of pasture species frequently used in oversowing was investigated in the laboratory and in a range of ...
Seed production and loss in white clover (Trifolium repens L.)
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1987)
Two studies of seed production, and loss, and seed characteristics of white clover cultivars 'Grasslands Tahora, Pitau, Huia', and G18, (now 'Grasslands Kopu'), were investigated over the 1984/85 season at Lincoln College, ...
Seed production and seedling establishment in rhizomatous clovers
(Lincoln University, 1991)
Seed production was measured from four seed lines of rhizomatous clovers, Caucasian clover (T. ambiguum) cultivars Alpine (diploid) and Monaro (hexaploid), and zigzag clover (T. medium) seed lines Porters Pass and Kentucky ...
Meteorological and agronomic factors in the growth of sugar beet
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1982)
A neutron moderation meter was used to measure soil moisture to depths of up to 1 m in plots of sugar beet grown at three plant populations (100,000, 130,000 and 300,000 plants/ha), with limited irrigation and without ...
The effects of nitrogen, irrigation and sowing date on growth and yield of lentils (Lens culinaris Medik.)
(Lincoln University, 1993)
Effects of additional nitrogen (N), irrigation and sowing date on early growth, N nutrition, leaf growth and yield of Lens culinaris (lentils) were examined under glasshouse and field conditions.
For Olympic and Titore ...
The potential of intercropping oats with lupins or peas for forage production
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1987)
In a one year field experiment carried out at Lincoln College in 1984-85, oats (Avena sativa cv. Anvil) were intercropped with Lupins (Lupinus angustifolius cv. Uniharvest) or Peas (pisum sativum Cv. Whero). Dry matter ...
The effects of soil moisture stress at different stages of development on the grain yield of two New Zealand wheat varieties
(Lincoln College, University of Canterbury, 1967)
The importance of the wheat plant needs no emphasis. Among the cereals it is second to none in economic importance and in total yearly production. In New Zealand, of course, it is the most important of all arable crops; ...
