Nice Ascochyta Blight Symptoms starting at Dooen pulse agronomy trials. Looking at movement in standing vs slashed stubble + fungicide control strategies Joshua Fanning Matthew Sparke GRDC

Just love fans bean damage symptoms😁. First photo and coulld have suggested early #disease... BUT it’s all due to a #adjuvant (applied with a herbicide after a frost). Matt Witney Matthew Sparke Melissa Garcia Joshua Fanning

Herbicide Damage in #Lentil 1 Plant - 2 Herbicides (diflufenican & flumetsulam) - 1 adjuvant. PBA Hallmark XT & PBA Highland XT both tolerating diflufenican better than other varieties. Michael Moodie Matt Witney Sundara Mawalagedera GRDC

Inter-row sowing chickpeas into slashed stubble increases yield losses due to ascochyta blight almost as much as choosing a more susceptible variety. Results from GRDC South Agriculture Victoria Dooen site. SouthernPulse Kristy Hobson Matt Witney

A huge congratulations to our senior research scientist SouthernPulse who was named winner of the 2021 David Roget Award for Excellence by @MSF_Mildura Ag Vic Grains

Fortunately there is a fair bit of diversity within the domesticated genepool, and the folks PROFABA, and others elsewhere, are getting on with exploring and using it…(9/9) 📷: Stig Uggerhøj Andersen

Setting up for the Southern Pulse Field Day tomorrow @ Propodolloh (N of Nhill). Sites looking good. New varieties being released! See you there at 9 sharp. Please make sure you register... trybooking.com/BUDMO. Mitchell Fromm Matt Witney Matthew Sparke Matt Rohde

Another friendly frost at the Nhill trial site🥶. Lots of pods affected in peas. Lentil varietal differences in colour response again. ⁦Simon Mock⁩ ⁦Matt Rohde⁩ ⁦Audrey Delahunty⁩

Kristy Hobson Colin McMaster Rohan Brill GRDC ChickpeaBreedingAustralia Graeme Sandral GOA SouthernPulse This data in Vic showed sowing chickpeas interrow between standing cereal stubble was equivalent of sowing a less susceptible cultivar. Sundara Mawalagedera repeated during 2021 and found a similar result. IDM still essential as Kevin James Moore said. All tools that improve yield.

Back in full swing. The Annual Wimmera Pulse Field Day, Tues Oct 25, just north of Kalkee. Chickpea burgers will be back with free BBQ. New varieties on display with agonomy and marketing discussions. Sundara Mawalagedera GRDC David Jochinke Register here: bit.ly/3SXEICU
