  Hyper Profitable Crops - cereal paddock benchmarking and innovation groups

  In the high rainfall zones of Australia, there are significant gaps between the crop yields produced in commercial paddocks and the water-limited yield potential. A considerable amount of RD&E has been conducted in the high rainfall zones (e.g.…

  Cereal rust isolate categorisation proof-of-concept

  Cereal rust diseases are caused by pathogenic fungi that often evolve rapidly into new virulent strains that render the genetic resistance in crops ineffective. This project aims to identify virulence genes in rust fungi that allow them to overcome…

  New metrics to quantify biological function and resilience in soils

  Biological function in soils, such as nutrient cycling, C storage and turnover, water maintenance, soil structure and biotic regulation are integral for soil health and resilience. Such soil processes are critical for the sustainability of…

  Validation and deployment of novel genomic regions from wild barley to enhance grain yield and yield components in domesticated barley

  Extensive domestication through breeding and selection has resulted in a genetic bottleneck in many crops, including barley. Notwithstanding that genetic gain will continue to be achieved into the future through sophisticated plant breeding…

  Understanding the epidemiology of Ramularia in barley

  Ramularia collo-cygni (Rcc) is a fungal pathogen that poses a significant threat to Australian barley as it causes Ramularia leaf spot (RLS). Accurate identification of RLS is essential for effective crop management. The investment aims to provide…

  Improving the understanding and the effectiveness of N fixation in pulses in Australia

  Legume crops play a key role in Australian farming systems, providing on average 30kg N/ha extra for subsequent crops (ranging from 7 to 60 Kg N/ha). A review on rhizobia research by GRDC in Australia (Herridge 2021) estimated that about 80% of…

  NGN - Demonstration of summer fallow weed management strategies to reduce input costs in soils of the Wentworth region

  Summer fallow weeds cause large grain yield reductions in the following winter crop as they deplete soil water and nitrogen in the fallow phase, therefore limiting availability to crops. Additionally, fallow weeds can act as a 'green…
