New Knowledge on Pests and Beneficials in Grains

This item is harvested.

Definition

We are currently limited in our ability to predict when and where invertebrate pest densities will reach high levels and cause yield loss in grain crops across Australia. This is partly due to a lack of fundamental knowledge around pest and beneficial species distribution and the factors that influence population abundance. This collection will generate new knowledge about the life-cycle and biology of a range of pest and beneficial species across southern and western regions, which will enable pathways for better insecticide-use decision-making and the proactive management of pests. Lineage: The data were collected during two years (2017 and 2018) of field cage trials on predation/parasitism of aphids across NSW, WA, Vic and SA. In 2019, an observational study was conducted on parasitoid wasps across NSW, WA, Vic and SA.
