Optimising Plant Establishment 2021 Inverleigh Faba Bean Experiment

Data from the 2021 crop establishment trial at Inverleigh, VIC. The trial compared the establishment of Bendoc CL faba bean at different densities, under a conventional seeder (Vaderstad Rapid) and under a precision seeder (Vaderstad Tempo). The experiment was run under the UOA1803-009RTX GRDC research project led by the University of Adelaide, with the experimental trial and local data collection managed by Southern Farming Systems (SFS).Files:2021 SFS faba bean.xlsxExperiment setup:Experiment managed by Southern Farming Systems (SFS). The trial was organised as a randomised complete block design with 4 treatments (conventional seeder vs precision seeder, and target plant densities 10 and 20 plants/m2), arranged spatially in a single column with 16 rows, 4 replicates, and 16 plots total. The variety of faba bean used for this trial was Bendoc CL.Variables recorded:establishment count (plants/m2), seedling depth (mm), interplant distance (cm), peak biomass (t/ha), yield (kg/plot), corrected yield at 8% moisture (t/ha), 1000-grain weight (g)Data collection and assessment:The paddock was sown on 28/04/2021. Plant emergence counts were made on 12/05/2021, 18/05/2021, 21/05/2021, 24/05/2021 and 02/06/2021, with a final establishment count made at each plot, averaged over 12 counts per plot. Seedling depth was measured from the seed to soil surface for 5 seedlings per plot. Interplant distance was measured for each plot. Peak biomass was averaged over top, middle and lower biomass. At harvest, the yield was recorded in kg/plot and also corrected to 8% moisture content, and the 1000-grain weight (g) was recorded.

本数据集源于2021年在维多利亚州Inverleigh进行的作物种植试验。试验对比了在不同密度下，Bendoc CL鹰嘴豆在传统播种机（Vaderstad Rapid）与精准播种机（Vaderstad Tempo）条件下的种植情况。该实验由阿德莱德大学主持的UOA1803-009RTX GRDC研究项目执行，由南方农业系统（SFS）负责实验试种及本地数据收集。文件：2021 SFS faba bean.xlsx
实验设置：实验由南方农业系统（SFS）管理。试验以随机完全区组设计组织，包含4个处理（传统播种机与精准播种机对比，目标植株密度为10和20株/平方米），在单列16行中空间排列，4次重复，共16个小区。试验中使用的鹰嘴豆品种为Bendoc CL。
记录变量：植株建立数量（株/平方米）、幼苗深度（毫米）、株间距离（厘米）、峰值生物量（吨/公顷）、产量（千克/小区）、8%水分含量下的校正产量（吨/公顷）、千粒重（克）。
数据收集与评估：试验地于2021年4月28日播种。于5月12日、18日、21日、24日和6月2日进行植株出苗计数，每个小区进行12次计数，并最终在每个小区进行植株建立数量的最终计数。每个小区测量5株幼苗的幼苗深度，从种子到土壤表面的距离。每个小区测量株间距离。峰值生物量取顶部、中部和底部生物量的平均值。收获时，记录产量（千克/小区），并校正至8%水分含量，同时记录千粒重（克）。
