  Determining the economic impact of Native Budworm (Helicoverpa punctigera) in cereal crops in the Western Region

  Since 2018, there has been an annual and increasing trend in Western Australia of native budworm (Helicoverpa punctigera) causing feeding damage in cereal crops, particularly wheat, which is not the species' traditional host crop. An early…

  Investigating the value of companion cropping systems of chickpea and cereals for improved crop and fallow water use efficiency.

  Grains growers in Australia have successfully implement retained stubble farming systems to reduce evaporative water loss on their farm systems, with cereal stubble retaining water at close to double that of grain legume stubbles over the fallow…
