IntroductionGrains industry productivity is dependent upon the continued adoption and deployment of new technologies, including the adoption of new varieties with superior yield and useful disease-resistance characteristics.
National Variety Trials seek to collect the most relevant varieties for each region and test them alongside the elite lines from the breeding programs. For information on the released varieties in the NVT trials in Queensland visit the NVT website (www.nvtonline.com.au).
The 2014 season Rainfall was scarce throughout the 2014 season. Very little summer rainfall was received, consequently soil moisture levels were extremely low and optimism for the season was low. Fortunately, a considerable rainfall event (75 to 150 millimetres) took place in the last few days of March, boosting soil moisture levels and increasing confidence in achieving an average season. The rainfall event was marginally early and initiated widespread planting. However, it enabled early planting in most regions in late April and early May where the moisture was able to be conserved. In-season rainfall was essentially absent; the majority of crops managed to survive on stored moisture until some moderate falls in mid-August.
Harvest conditions were dry across Queensland, except for the Central Highlands. Heavy rainfall in September caused significant delays in harvest throughout this region. Overall, grain yields were below average but considering the difficult season grain recovery was better than expected.

Disease characteristicsCRown RoT: The lack of rain early in the season reduced the amount of inoculum build-up but the dry finish exacerbated the effects of any crown rot infection present. Instances of crown rot in crops sown into paddocks that had not seen a wheat crop for three or more years reinforce the point that the inoculum can survive several years and that grasses either weeds or pastures, can host and carry over the disease. Crown rot inoculum in the soil continues be a threat. The problem for growers is that a wet season builds up inoculum but the crop shows few symptoms and yields are good, so the temptation is to grow another wheat crop. A dry season, particularly a dry finish, does not necessarily build up inoculum, but symptoms are severe and losses are high.
LeAf And STeM diSeASeS are more likely to cause problems in wetter seasons, particularly as there was also a wet season the year before and large amounts of inoculum exist in stubbles or volunteer hosts. Losses from rusts are potentially great, but growers need to utilise varieties with good resistance or be prepared to spray with fungicides one or more times as needed.
RooT LeSion neMATodeS (RLn) are widespread in the northern grains region and can significantly reduce wheat yields. RLN is also hosted by many non-cereal crops so that the absence of a winter-cereal crop in recent seasons does not mean that there are low levels of nematodes in the soil. A soil testing service for RLN is available through the PreDicta® B service. Contact your local agronomist for details. A test should be considered prior to planting if you do not know which species, or the levels of the nematode that are on your farm. If wheat is to be sown in nematode-infested soil, the tolerant varieties (listed as T, TMT or MT and highlighted in green) should be considered. The reaction of a wheat variety to the two species of RLN, Pratylenchus thornei and P. neglectus, may differ. This should be checked in Tables 2A and 2B (pages 6 and 7).
To avoid bunT, wheat seed should be treated with a fungicidal dressing if it has been retained from a crop grown from untreated seed.
Only varieties deemed suitable for conditions in the northern region (Queensland and northern NSW) have been included in this guide. If a variety is not mentioned, either commercial seed is not available or there is concern that it may not carry robust rust resistances and may compromise the Queensland wheat industry. If seed of varieties not mentioned in this guide is obtained, please ensure that you are provided with current and reliable rust information by the vendor.
A new STRAin of LeAf RuST was detected in South Australia in August 2014. Tests by the Plant Breeding Institute, Cobbitty, NSW, indicate that this rust was an exotic incursion which, for the first time, combined virulence for three popular resistance genes present in some commercial varieties. This strain has been detected as far north as Narrabri, NSW, and it is expected that it will spread throughout the northern region in 2015.
As this rust was detected relatively late in the 2014 season, there is limited data on the responses of current commercial varieties to this strain. Results from NVT trials in South Australia and Victoria have been used to provide resistance ratings for 2015. Some varieties appear more susceptible than previously rated: in Table 2A and 2B variety ratings are denoted with a ‘P’ for ‘provisional’, for example, ‘MSP’,
indicating that ratings may change after 2015. Growers are advised to monitor crops rated MS or higher.
There were no reports of significant leaf rust in 2014. Leaf rust is often rare in Queensland, but farmers in the region should keep a watch on their crop’s development that have good resistance, or that develop severe disease. In either case contact your local agronomist or a pathologist for advice.
STRipe RuST: There were no reports of significant stripe rust in 2014. This may have been due to the lack of rain. As the pathogen can blow tens of kilometres or more, jumping from one crop to another, there will be enough inoculum in 2015 where conditions are conducive for its spread. Always select a cultivar with good resistance or be prepared to invest in multiple fungicide sprays and take some yield losses if a serious epidemic develops, or weather prevents spraying at optimum times.
YeLLow SpoT: With a few exceptions, yellow spot was not a problem at the seedling stage in 2014. The few spots on seedlings showing yellow spot were due to dews and fogs retaining enough leaf moisture and stubble moisture for spore release and infection. Environmental conditions in 2014 did not result in widespread physiological blotches, so they were not confused with yellow spot.
Even though there was little yellow spot in 2014 there would have been some carryover of the disease. If 2015 turns out to be a wet autumn then winter disease levels should be monitored. Monitor the disease approaching flag leaf emergence. If yellow spot is conspicuous in the lower canopy, apply fungicide to minimise infection of the top three leaves including the flag leaf. Applying fungicide to young crops has repeatedly been shown to be of little economic benefit unless there is a very high level of disease.

General notesBread and noodle wheats (Triticum aestivum)Bread and noodle wheats are the dominant types of wheats planted throughout Queensland and Australia. They fall into a number of classifications that have different receival standards. From APH (Australian Prime Hard) with high quality requirements through to FEED, which has limited quality requirements. Queensland conditions are conducive to the production of high quality grain. The breeding and development of new varieties reflects this. Flour milled from Australian Prime Hard wheat is used to produce high-protein, Chinese-style, yellow, alkaline noodles and Japanese Ramen noodles of superior brightness, colour and eating quality. Australian Prime Hard flour is also suitable for the production of high-protein, high-volume breads and wanton dumpling skins. Australian Prime Hard can be blended with lower-protein wheats to produce flours suitable for a wide range of baked products.
Durum wheats (Triticum durum)Durum wheats are used in the production of pasta products, where the main requirement is grain of high protein, preferably more than 13 per cent and a minimum of 11.5 per cent. Grain appearance is also important, downgrading can occur due to black point, weather damage and mottling. Acceptable levels of black point are as follows: ADR1 – 3 per cent, ADR2 – 5 per cent and ADR3 – 20 per cent.
Soft wheats
Soft wheats represent two distinct types. The Soft biscuit type (9 to 10 per cent protein), suitable for use in the biscuit industry, and the Soft noodle type (9 to 11.5 per cent protein), suitable for the manufacture of cakes, pastry and white salted noodles.
Soft Biscuit types are best grown using irrigation and suitable crop management to achieve target protein levels. Capped domestic market volumes exist and growers are therefore urged to seek pre-plant contracts.
Feed wheatsFeed wheats are generally high-yielding varieties that have quality limitations for use in flour and noodle production.
Forage wheats Forage wheats are commonly the winter type and have the major advantage of adaptability to a wide range of sowing times. The winter habit delays maturity in early sowings, thus extending the period of vegetative growth. Maturity varies once vernalisation requirements have been met. Winter wheats are usually sown in late March or early April.
Frost damage may be minimised by planting varieties within the range of dates recommended in Table 1. This table was compiled from recent available data.
Planting categories
E = Early
Early planted crops face the risk of frost damage from pre-flowering to grain fill. Therefore, plant early in areas of low frost risk, such as higher slopes, and reduce the risk of frost damage by planting more than one variety and by varying planting times.
In central Queensland, warm weather encourages rapid early plant development. Where possible, plant shallow into moisture and use press-wheels to aid establishment. Increase the plant population for all varieties to compensate for reduced tillering in warm growing conditions. Maturity groupings may differ from district to district, particularly from central to southern Queensland.
C = Conventional
Varieties sown at their most appropriate planting times flower after the main frost period, although late frosts may still cause damage.
L = Late
The reliability of yield can be low following a very late planting due to high temperatures during flowering and grain filling.
Each row in second column represents maturity groups within individual districts
† Plant wheat varieties two weeks earlier in the West Moreton
Detailed wheat planting information for each region is available on the Queensland Department of Agriculture and Fisheries website (www.daff.qld.gov.au).

Effects of grain defects on end-product qualityBlack point – Excessive levels may result in specky semolina or discoloured bran, wheat germ and divide flours (pastry flour). End products are often visually unattractive; this is particularly the case with durum products such as pasta.
Sprouting (low falling number) – Finished product is affected by high levels of alpha amylase present in the flour, which causes key-holing in bread, fragile noodles, dark discoloured biscuits and cakes. Minimal impact on pasta except at FN (falling numbers) < 200 seconds.
FroSt damage – Can cause low falling number, reduced flour yield, increased grain hardness and very poor baking performance – bread, biscuits and breakfast cereals.
exceSS ScreeningS – Reduced grain and flour yield (loss of profitability) but has little effect on end-product quality (excluding excess screenings due to frost and heat-stress damage). During the 2002 harvest it was observed that a number of samples tested with high screenings had poor baking quality. This was attributed to heat-stress damage during grain filling, which was also believed to be responsible for the high screenings.
low denSity (test weight, kg/hl) – Reduced grain and flour yield (loss of profitability), has little effect on end-product quality (excluding low density due to frost and heat-stress damage).
Heat damage (due to drying at temperatures above 60ºC) – Flour produced from this grain is of poor baking quality and baked products are often unsaleable.
Sensitivity of wheat varieties to herbicides (Table 4, next page)Research in southern Queensland in the 15 years from 1999 to 2014 has shown that herbicide tolerance differed among the wheat varieties grown in the northern region.
The research was undertaken at weed-free sites in two formats. The advanced trials compared plot yields of varieties sprayed at the recommended label rate and double label rates with the untreated controls. The preliminary trials compared plot yields of varieties sprayed at double the recommended label rate with the untreated control. Herbicide rates and crop stages at spraying are presented in Table 4.
The sensitivity of the varieties is summarised in Table 4 using the following symbols based on the yield responses across all trials:
no significant yield reductions at a recommended and double rate
N (narrow margin) significant yield reductions at double rate in 1+ trials, but not at recommended rate. Includes data from advanced and preliminary trials.
If a yield reduction is significant at the recommended label rate then a yield reduction percentage can be calculated. This will produce a warning. Where warnings are given the effect at double rates is not included in the table.
x% yield reduction (warning) significant yield reduction at recommended rate in 1 trial only
x-y% yield reductions (warning) significant yield reductions at recommended rate in 2+ trials
( ) years of screening, e.g. (2) is 2 years’ screening, (1/3) indicates there was yield loss in 1 year of 3 years’ screening.
nb Always follow label recommendations. All herbicide applications must accord with the currently registered label for that particular herbicide, crop, weed and region. Any research regarding herbicides and their use reported here does not constitute a recommendation for that particular use by the authors or Queensland dAf. it must be emphasised that crop tolerances and yield responses to herbicides are strongly influenced by seasonal conditions.

Nvt provides Estimated Genetic values (EGvs) for grain yield for commercial varieties. Estimates of genetic value (yield) of individual varieties (on a state or region basis) are obtained from a statistical analysis of long-term multi-environment trial (MEt) data collected between the years of 2010–14. these values represent the best available predictions for the specified region and are provided to facilitate reliable variety selection decisions.
www.nvtonline.com.auQUEENSLAND 2015

The regional mean yields shown the previous page (Tables 5.1 to 5.6) average varietal performance across trial locations within each region. This averaging masks the variety by environment interaction, that is, the ability of a variety to yield differently at each location across seasons (years). The production value reporting shown in the graphs below unlocks the variability in grain yield performance observed over different sites and seasons in the NVT trials. The production value (PV) is the varietal yield advantage (t/ha) for each variety at each environment. The PVs are shown as positive or negative differences relative to a baseline, which reflects the expected average yield of all the varieties in the current northern region wheat NVT data, for main and early season trial sets. Varieties may be viewed as having expected yields that are equal to the baseline (PV=0) or above (PV>0) or below (PV<0) average for each particular environment.

Know more. Grow more.
“The real value of the GrowNotes concept lies in their ability to offer something for everyone, whether it’s the latest information on plant populations or row spacing, crop nutrition, spray rates, stubble management or marketing.
“The information is at growers’ fingertips, anytime of the day or night, and being digital means the content can be updated as soon as new research information comes to hand.”
Rob Long, Senior agronomist, B&W Rural Moree
“The Peanut GrowNotes module is
a great technical resource for both
agronomists and growers, particularly
the younger people in our industry who
are seeking detailed and up-to-date
agronomic management information
to broaden their knowledge and
experience.
“There haven’t been any comprehensive
resources in the public domain covering
the agronomic management of peanuts
published since the mid-1990s so the
Peanut GrowNotes will certainly be
welcomed by the industry.
“One of the most exciting parts about
this initiative is that it is so easy to
access and will be kept updated as new
information comes to hand.”
Ian Crosthwaite, BGA AgriServices senior agronomist
“The GrowNotes chickpea module
was an exciting initiative, providing
a comprehensive framework for the
successful production of both Desi and
Kabuli crops in a format that was easy to
understand, access and navigate.
“Everything growers need to know about
the successful production of a chickpea
crop is contained in this module.
“It draws together information and
expertise from all sectors of the industry
and as it is digitised, growers can access
it at any time for on-the-spot advice
about specific questions or issues.”
Tim Poole, Poole Ag Consulting, Moree
“Having 24-hour access to detailed
agronomic and management information
was a critical first step in boosting the
yield potential and profitability of maize
crops in the northern cropping region.
“The Maize GrowNotes is one of
the most extensive compilations of
information and recommendations
related to the agronomic management,
supply chain logistics and marketing of
maize that I have seen.
“Having access to this depth and
quality of information all day, every day
means northern maize growers have an
unprecedented opportunity to lift the bar
on their productive capacity and gross
margin returns.”
Jim Hunt, Senior agronomist, Hunt Ag Solutions, Gunnedah
