dc.description.abstract | A field trial was established to quantify the impacts of
lime (0, 2.5, 5 and 10 t/ha) and nitrogen (N) fertiliser (0,
50, 100, 200 and 400 kg N/ha/year) addition on the dry
matter (DM) production of a crop sequence of triticale
followed by dryland pasture that was established on a
site converted from long-established plantation forestry.
Results are reported for the first 22 months. The
application of lime up to 10 t/ha had no effect on triticale
DM production. In the subsequent pasture, the percentage
of clover increased from 15% without lime to 25-30%
when 5-10 t/ha of lime was applied. Lime application
only increased pasture DM production in the last 4
months. Annual pasture DM production increased
significantly with increasing levels of N fertiliser
application from 5.3 t DM/ha with no N applied to 7.5 t
DM/ha at 400 kg N/ha. The observed response to N
addition was mainly attributed to the low N status of the
soil following conversion, which in turn was compounded
by the ongoing decomposition of large quantities of
mulched woody debris. | en |
