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.

SUMMARY:GRDC Spray Days – Narromine
DESCRIPTION:Technology and social license are changing how we spray fallow and field crops. Come to a GRDC Spray Day in September to discuss the latest spray technology innovations and stewardship with industry experts. \nSpray Days will assist growers to make more informed decisions on spray equipment investment and how to use technology for optimum benefit. \nIn the afternoon trade display session\, growers can focus in on the technologies they are most interested in\, with direct access to leading industry technology providers. \nFor more information and to register\, visit the GRDC website.

SUMMARY:GRDC online update: Stripe rust
DESCRIPTION:Theme: Stripe rust update for spring 2022 – what’s happening? \nTopics \n\nStripe rust pathotype update – what’s out there and implications for current cultivars (Robert Park\, University of Sydney PBI)\nHigh inoculum loads and the economics of spraying high yield potential crops for stripe rust (Nick Poole\, Far Australia)\nStripe rust – what’s happening in the paddock in this very high pressure year? (Steven Simpfendorfer\, NSW DPI)\n\nAdult plant resistance (APR) reaction under high inoculum load\nTemperature and APR expression – is there an issue?\nPathotypes – is there field evidence of changes\, or are field observations in line with seasonal inoculum loads?\n\n\n\nWebinar starts at 9am (AEST) on 28 September and is free of charge. \nRegister at the GRDC website.
