SUMMARY:GRDC Grains Research Update\, online – Beneficial insects and resistance: making smarter spray decisions
DESCRIPTION:Lilia Jenkins\, Cesar Australia will unpack the role beneficial insects play in Australian grain systems and how smart insecticide decisions can help protect them while maintaining effective pest control. Lilia will share practical strategies for integrating beneficials into pest management programs\, reducing unnecessary sprays\, and using insecticides more strategically to slow resistance and support long‑term control outcomes. \nFor more information and to register\, visit the GRDC website.

SUMMARY:GRDC Grains Research Update\, online – Pre-harvest grain storage health check
DESCRIPTION:With harvest looming this livestream will address timely factors that will impact your grain storage outcomes. \nPreventing issues is always better than dealing with them and the loss they cause. \nTopics will include high impact hygiene\, this year’s protectant choices and application\, retrofitting and utilising aeration cooling. \nJoin in the conversation with grain storage specialist Chris Warrick\, Primary Business. \nTo register for this free online event\, visit the GRDC website.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Pest prospects for spring 2022
DESCRIPTION:With the wetter winter and prospects of another La Niña in 2022-23\, it is worth taking a look at what this is likely to mean for insect pests and their management. \nWetter conditions typically allow many insect species to survive over winter because there are more plant hosts available. This often leads to earlier build-up of pests\, and potentially higher pressure through summer. \nAnd it’s not only local pest build-up that impacts crops; wetter conditions in other regions can promote an abundance of migratory pests like Helicoverpa punctigera\, native armyworm species\, Rutherglen bugs and some aphid species.  We are therefore likely to see issues with pests that have been relatively uncommon over the past few years. \nIn addition to pest abundance\, wet conditions can exacerbate losses in insect-damaged plants and pods. Wet conditions can also impact crop monitoring and prevent timely treatment. On the plus side\, many biocontrol agents (such as Metarhizium) are more commonly seen in wet seasons. \nThe webinar was held on Thursday 8 September from 1-2 pm (AEST) and included timely information on likely pest activity and impacts\, along with some tricks and tips for monitoring in wet seasons (including how to use the DARABUG2 insect growth model). \nSpeakers included Melina Miles\, Hugh Brier and Adam Quade from Queensland’s Department of Agriculture and Fisheries\, and Zorica Duric from the New South Wales Department of Primary Industries. \nA recording of this webinar can be found on the Beatsheet’s Presentations page.
