DAV00150 - Understanding the implications of new traits on adaptation, crop physiology and management of pulses in the southern region
Pulses are an important part of many productive, profitable and sustainable farming systems in southern Australia. This investment will provide targeted agronomic research on breeding lines and new pulse varieties which will be synthesised into management packages for the southern Australian cropping regions to maximise benefits of new varieties to growers immediately after they are released.
