Responses of fish assemblages to flooding of the Narran Lakes ecosystem, May 2008: Final Report to the New South Wales Department of Environment and Climate Change
This report details the spatial and short-term temporal responses of fish assemblages and recruitment to prolonged flooding in the Narran Lakes system, north-western NSW, that occurred between December 2007 and May 2008. A range of native and alien fish species are known to occur in this catchment (McDowall 1996; Lintermans 2007), and a number of weir structures exist within downstream reaches of the Narran River. Water is regularly extracted from the Narran River upstream of the terminal wetlands for irrigated cropping and stock and domestic needs. During summer-autumn 2008, the Narran Lakes system experienced large-scale flooding and floodplain inundation. To prolong this inundation, the Murray-Darling Basin Commission purchased a quantity of water from the upstream Queensland irrigation district to maximise the outcomes of colonial waterbird breeding that occurred within the Narran lakes Nature Reserve (MDBC 2008; Peter Terrill personal communication). Due to the considerable amount of money spent purchasing this water, the NSW Department of Environment and Climate Change, the Murray-Darling Basin Commission and the Australian Department of Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts were interested in responses of fish assemblages and recruitment to this prolonged flooding to gain information for the improvement of future water delivery for conservation purposes in the region

Raspberries and blackberries: establishment and management
Raspberries require well drained, deep soil. They do not tolerate heavy clay soils, or shallow soils, or prolonged water stress. They can tolerate heat in summer, but hot wind will devastate new growth and economic viability. The floricane fruiting (spring and summer) raspberries require adequate winter chill to fully and evenly break dormancy in spring. They are therefore unsuited to coastal areas of temperate Australia, or any subtropical regions. The primocane fruiting raspberries have a lower chill requirement and will crop in warm temperate regions. The cultivated blackberries will grow on a wide range of soils provided that drainage is adequate. Their winter chill requirements are lower than floricane fruiting raspberries. The late season thornless cultivars have a high water requirement for adequate growth and will not perform well on soils which dry out in late summer
Growing canola
Canola is a profitable cropping option for many cropping regions of Victoria and it also brings diversity in terms of cropping rotations. Background information is provided for potential growers, agri-industry and students
Hay preservatives
This Agricultural Nnote provides information on the use of preservatives for safer storage of hay in Australia. When deciding which product to use, it is important to understand the differences between each of the products and when each can or cannot be used

Decimal growth scale of cereals
Accurate assessment of growth stage is important because the cereal plant\u27s response to herbicide, growth regulator or fertiliser application depends on its stage of development
