Nitrogen and Wheat Trials at Woodbine Paddock
Observations by Mr. W W Watson of Woodbine NSW show that wheat yields were influenced by prior peas grown in a 1928 strip. After topdressing with ammonium sulfate in 1930 the treated patch showed immediate growth improvement, suggesting both organic and inorganic nitrogen benefitted the crop. The paddock’s soil has long been cultivated, depleting native legumes and humus, with the instructor noting soil type and history may explain results. Watson plans to work with the Department of Agriculture next season to test the hypothesis further.
