Long awaited #starlink kit arrived the other week extremely impressed with the performance so far. Safe to say our Sky Muster NBN is no more.

First day looking at our semester experiment for our third year ag unit Advanced Cropping, Researching the impact of split nitrogen applications vs single application on the final biomass of various oat varieties. Joel Kelly Andrew Jenkinson Ashton Hagboom Sarita Bennett Bec Swift

Week 2 measurements of our oats biomass experiment for our ADV Cropping unit. Spread our first nitrogen application, 80 units on treatment 1 and 50 units on treatment 2 (split application). Plants at GS21-26. Joel Kelly Darcy Cobley Andrew Jenkinson Ashton Hagboom Sarita Bennett Bec Swift

Week 3 measurements of our oats biomass experiment for our ADV Cropping unit. Starting to see disease and potential potassium deficiency in some areas of the plots. Otherwise, coming along nicely! Sarita Bennett Bec Swift Ashton Hagboom Joel Kelly Darcy Cobley Andrew Jenkinson

Week 4 measurements of our oats biomass trial. Different Nitrogen treatments becoming obvious within the plots. Potential potassium deficiency is still evident. Still monitoring for pests and disease. Joel Kelly Darcy Cobley Ashton Hagboom Andrew Jenkinson Bec Swift Sarita Bennett

Week 5 of measurements of our oats experiment. Can clearly see different nitrogen treatments within each plot. Looking to apply the final nitrogen treatments next week. Andrew Jenkinson Joel Kelly Ashton Hagboom Darcy Cobley Sarita Bennett Bec Swift

Week 6 measurements of our oats biomass trial. Applied the remaining 30 units to the split nitrogen treatment. Plenty of snails within the plots, along with lots of clover within one of the two plots. Andrew Jenkinson Ashton Hagboom Darcy Cobley Joel Kelly Sarita Bennett Bec Swift

Final week of measurements for our oats biomass trial. We harvested biomass samples today which will be dried and weighed. There seemed to be a difference across each nitrogen treatment, variety and biomass. Bec Swift Sarita Bennett Joel Kelly Ashton Hagboom Andrew Jenkinson Darcy Cobley
