Improving management of Group A resistant barley grass in current farming systems (S/UA121)
Nov 22, 2023 | Current Projects
Control of resistant barley grass is to be investigated on upper Eyre Peninsula through 1) impact of new herbicides and management options in cereals and break crops, 2) understanding the seed dormancy and germination patterns of barley grass in that region, and 3) identifying soil constraints that impact on herbicide efficacy by monitoring five farmer paddocks per season.
Eyre Peninsula internship in applied grains research 2023-24 (AEP1422)
Nov 21, 2023 | Current Projects
To improve the capacity of grains research, development and extension on the Eyre Peninsula and to further develop applied research skills of recent graduates so they will be able to make an improved contribution to the grains RD&E industry in SA, through the appointment of a recent graduate as an intern in applied grains research on EP.
Managing crown rot on upper EP – a joint learning experience (AEP1022)
Nov 21, 2023 | Current Projects
This project aims to reduce yield losses due to crown rot, increasing the amount and consistency of grain for export; increase the adoption of existing and novel options for managing crown rot; and improve the ability of farmers and advisers (and researchers) to understand trials and demonstrations.
