Episode Synopsis

Host: DPIRD Research Agronomist, Janette PrattGuest speaker: DPIRD Plant Pathologist, Ciara BeardSclerotinia stem rot is a fungal disease of canola and lupin that can cause significant yield loss. Yield losses can be severe in years of higher moisture and cooler conditions which favours disease development. With foliar fungicide applications not always economical, the decision to spray or not to spray is complex. DPIRD (with co-investment from GRDC) has developed the SclerotiniaCM decision support tool to assist in this process.Click here to learn more about the SclerotiniaCM App
