Conteúdo: | The development and monitoring of a method of recovery of a proportion of the pool of shed seed of specialized seed crops of siratro in north Queensland is described. Horwood Bagshaw. Clover Harvesters with pneumatic pick-up of fallen seed, operating in previously header harvested and closely slashed crops, have been used to recover up to c. 350 kg ha-1 of high quality cleaned seed from pools of up to c.900 kg ha-1 of available fallen seed. Methods of handling and cleaning have been developed such that, in spite of the major cost factor of slow ground cover (c. 0.05 ha h-1), suction harvesting as an adjunct to direct heading has become an established and economiclly viable component of siratro seed crop management.
