Winter rapeseed Variety Trials • Point of origin: Cereal Trial technique • High use of labour in trials • Difficult establishment and high trial errors • high Interaction (Genotype x Environment) • High Neighbour effect between genotypes Wir lassen Qualität wachsen
Neighbour effects in variety trials of Winter rapeseed caused by: . Genotype . Winter damage . Speed of development . Plant height . Tendency of lodging . Earliness/ripening time Wir lassen Qualität wachsen

NPZ Plot drilling Machine for Bordered Plots in Winterrape (Draft) Wir lassen Qualität wachsen
NPZ-Drillmaschine für Kerndruschparzellen bei Winterraps (Werkphoto) Wir lassen Qualität wachsen
Technical specifications for NPZ Bordered Plots (Kerndrusch Parzelle) • 1,75 m width of Plots („Centre“) • 5 Drilling Rows • 28 cm Row distance • 63 cm distance between edge rows of Centre and first border rows of 2 on each side of Centre • 3,50 m total width of Bordered plot system • Strengthening and prolongation of frame of Drilling machine • Higher placing of drilling cone. Wir lassen Qualität wachsen
Harvest Technique for Bordered Plot system • Separation of Centre and Border rows • Swathing and harvest of Centre = Harvest plot • Or direct Harvest of Centre • Total width of Plot combiner ca. 2,10 m Wir lassen Qualität wachsen
Advantages of NPZ Bordered Plot system (compared to double plots) • Half the working hours by drilling and harvest • Very accurate yield-ranking of varieties caused by exclusion of neighbour effects • Improving of LSD values as for double plots (can give possibilities for reduction in number of replications) • Improved differentiation in lodging (as for double plots) • Possibilities for using the border rows for late scoring of stem diseases (Phoma, Verticillium) Wir lassen Qualität wachsen
Disadvantages of Bordered plot system (Compared to single- and double plots) • Increased need of land for trials (same as for double plots) • Bigger tractor (ca. 50 HP) recommended for drilling • More working hours for separation of harvest plots and border + manual preparations for swathing • Suitable Plot combiner for bordered plot system • Need of big combiner for harvest of borders Wir lassen Qualität wachsen
