Regional internship in applied grains research (HAR0423)
Nov 22, 2023 | Current Projects
The project aims to give graduates with a specific interest in applied RD&E an introduction and hands-on training in the fundamentals of applied RD&E, relevant to the grains industry. Attracting and encouraging agricultural graduates into applied grains research across South Australia, assisting with the succession planning of key staff in research organisations, particularly farming systems groups, is essential.
Soil salinity thresholds for chickpeas, faba beans and lentils (ASO3523)
Nov 22, 2023 | Current Projects
This project aims, through a controlled glasshouse trial, to determine soil salinity thresholds for emergence and vigour of current pulse crops across a small range of soils by manipulating baseline soil salinity levels.
Genetic and fungicidal control of Septoria tritici blotch and stripe rust in wheat (AGX4223)
Nov 22, 2023 | Current Projects
This project will seek to evaluate the effectiveness of various fungicide treatments for control of Septoria tritici blotch and stripe rust in a range of wheat varieties with differing levels of resistance at different rainfall zones. It will also determine the genetic influence of yield loss from disease and find a suitable application package of fungicide to reduce the cost of production.
Powdery mildew control in wheat –extension project (AGX3623)
Nov 22, 2023 | Current Projects
This project aims to demonstrate to growers and agronomists in the Mid and Upper North regions the effectiveness of existing and emerging wheat powdery mildew control options across four varieties with diverse susceptibility ratings. The agronomic efficacy and economic effectiveness of control options will be demonstrated in each wheat variety.
