Experimental Wheat and Oat Trials at Osterley Farm Ootha
A report from Mr G McAuley’s Osterley property on the Condobolin line details crop results from farmer experiment plots under the Department of Agriculture. Rainfall totals and varying fertiliser use influenced yields of wheat varieties and Sunrise oats, with later varieties like Warren Federation and Marshall’s Sond showing stronger performance after October rains. August and early September drought reduced early wheat yields, while lodging reduced Sunrise oat harvest. Continued notes on manuring and seasonal conditions.
