Lovely day for a field walk ☀️ great to be at the @FaceyGroup long coleoptile field walk today to chat all things oats at our collaborative trial with @CSIRO. Oats in general have a long coleoptile & mesocotyle length which allows the crop to emerge better at depth than most other cereals, making them a a great early sowing option.
Don’t miss our @CSIRO#FutureDroughtFund Long Coleoptile Field Walk happening next Fri, 14 July @2pm
It will be an information smorgasbord where you will hear from leading scientists on these projects & the various new varieties, followed by a sundowner thanks to @summitfertz
Excited to work with POGP funding for my Master’s project looking at ability of #oats to emerge from #deepsowing!
Oats sown at 100 mm on the left vs 30 mm. #Mesocotyl is an extension of #coleoptile, where oats is the only #cereal to have it 👀🌱
Excited to be trialling going deep with another crop - our @CSIRO summer student Angelia is producing enough awesome results we've even impressed @AllanRattey...now to work out what happening belowground!! @AndrewF00370433@rebetzke_0#DeepSowing
