Major Blackleg Disease leaf lesion infections across many varieties throughout WA this season from my travel observations (Highest in my 31 years in canola). Be vigilant/strategic on additional fungicide use esp after combo of later TOS & run of wetter years. #BeAware @AgingAgro

CALLISTO pre-emergent herbicide doing its thing on volunteer pulses. Telltale bleaching 8 weeks after this barley was sown. This and more being observed this week at the Syngenta Learning Centre Wagga Wagga @SyngentaANZ

Last of the wheat going in on this property near Kojonup yesterday. Good to see how they are using CALLISTO herbicide to help manage volunteer canola following their RR crop last season.Hopefully a drop of rain over the next couple of days! @SyngentaANZ @gwxr496

Surely we can find a home somewhere for Wayne’s sheep. Someone must be fallowing land somewhere this year.

Miravis star (green section) on diamond canola (a sucker for sclero). This fungicide has some amazing stay green properties, even in a decile 1 spring this will be a big yield difference. Other varieties seem unaffected. @SynCerealsANZ @gwxr496

Handy early protection @trevor_philp is that FAW or wireworm the main culprit? @SyngentaANZ @sladekatiee

Fortenza Duo seed treatment doing a good job protecting the seedling maize up to the 2-3 leaf stage. Dry conditions since planting. Fortenza Duo+banding of insecticide with high water rates almost perfect protection. UT plots up to 100% infested and starting to lose seedlings

Despite the whole paddock having 2 previous fungicides , a clear yield and quality difference where the Miravis star ran out on the third fungicide pass 💰 🫣@CropDoctor54 @JasonBrand @FanningJosh_ @agrobaz @SeanM_DMAg_SA @brettbarker92 @aidanpmcgrath @JamesConsi @gwxr496

Is it love? No it is @s_simpfendorfer literally begging the industry and @Shep_DubVegas to test seed before planting this year. Predicting massive seed #FHB issues heading into #plant23 @GRDCNorth #GRDCUpdates
