Other claims from this paper (9)
- Association Low pre-emergence ear carbohydrates were associated with poor grain set at about twice conventional seeding rates.
- Observation Arawa had better grain set than Aotea.
- Observation Arawa had better grain filling than Aotea.
- Observation Arawa had higher pre-anthesis ear carbohydrates than Aotea.
- Association Nitrogen fertilisation had no obvious relationship with ear carbohydrate content near emergence.
- Intervention effect Irrigation tended to lower pre-anthesis ear carbohydrates in Aotea and Arawa.
- Intervention effect Irrigation tended to reduce grain set.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen increased mid-ear grain set in Karamu.
- Intervention effect Aotea and Arawa did not show the nitrogen response seen in Karamu.
