Agronomy strategies for frost management in pulse crops (UAD1922)

START

July 1, 2022

FINISH

June 30, 2025

Summary

This project will be undertaken by SARDI researchers. Novel management strategies that either provide crop protection or avoidance during the critical reproductive stages, such as including mixed species cropping (intercropping) and delayed sowing, will be investigated to successfully grow pulse crops in frost prone environments.
