Description

Agronomists and grain growers are invited to discuss the cutting edge of disease and fungicide resistance management in a 2-day GRDC-supported workshop, brought to you by the Australian Fungicide Resistance Extension Network (AFREN).

These ‘small group’ workshops cover:

  • Cereal growth stages and spray decisions
  • Where different fungicides fit
  • Fungicide resistance management and resources
  • Integrating fungicides, varieties, epidemiology, and seasons
  • Cereal canopy management interactions with foliar disease decision making
  • Management strategies that consider the underlying risk of fungicide resistance
  • Strategies for managing SDHI and other resistance issues, including net blotches in barley and triazole resistance in powdery mildew
  • Pulse (chickpea & mungbean) disease update.

This small group workshop will run for 2-days. Participant numbers are limited and most previous workshops have ‘sold-out’, so registration is essential to secure your place. While workshop content is targeted to agronomists, interested growers are welcome to register.

This AFREN (Australian Fungicide Resistance Extension Network) workshop has been developed with support from growers and the Federal Government through GRDC.
