This link provides the best estimate of the relative yield performance of<br />

varieties of the selected crop type in this region. Presented as a graph<br />

and a table, the data is based on the long-term analysis of all available<br />

trial yields. This information is vital to those considering new varieties.<br />

In this example, selecting this option provides a snapshot of the<br />

performance of all barley varieties tested at this site in Wagga Wagga,<br />

NSW, in 2011. Data is provided on yield and grain quality as well as site<br />

data such as soil tests and monthly rainfall. Details of paddock<br />

rotations and chemical and fertiliser inputs are also provided.<br />

This information is helpful when evaluating the performance of<br />

a <strong>variety</strong> in relation to specific seasonal conditions.<br />

Location and<br />

fate of <strong>trials</strong><br />

Selecting this option will download an Excel spreadsheet containing<br />

tables of yield and quality data from locations across your state.<br />

Tables are provided for yield and each of the grain receival test results,<br />

for example, protein, 100 grain weight and screenings. This information<br />

is useful to review the performance of a <strong>variety</strong> across different regions.<br />

Tables of ratings for disease resistance on a crop-by-state basis.<br />

These tables should be considered in tandem with long-term trial<br />

results when selecting varieties.<br />

End-point royalties can vary considerably between varieties.<br />

This option is a link to the Variety Central webpage for your chosen<br />

crop. This is a quick way to identify the end-point royalty associated with<br />

varieties you may consider growing.<br />

This is a quick way to establish what happened to <strong>trials</strong> in your region<br />

as, due to seasonal conditions and other factors, not every site is<br />

harvested and reported. Contact details for the trial manager for each<br />

site can also be found here.<br />

Many other documents related to the region and crop type can be<br />

located from this link. A publications front cover has been used as the<br />

link to help quick identification of the available publications.
