DAQ00003 - Integrating IPM for major insect pests of pulses, soybeans, and…
This project involving summer pulses was initiated to address major Integrated Pest Management (IPM) gaps, develop multi-pest management guidelines compatible with whitefly IPM, and to provide continued extension support. The project has developed new threshold models for podsucking bugs in mungbeans, shown that peanuts are more tolerant of mirids (fewer sprays needed) than mungbeans, and…Region: North

DAQ481 - Integrating IPM for heliothis and other major pests of pulses,…
Prior to project DAQ481, green and brown mirids were strongly suspected but unproven pests of mungbeans. With no validated sampling guidelines, crop scouts resorted to visual sampling as used in cotton. With the benefit of hindsight, mirid populations were consequently and frequently grossly underestimated. As a result, many crops suffered significant yield losses (up to 75% of their potential…Region: North

DAQ500 - Extensive dryland pulse development in Queensland - Component 1:…
The primary objective of this project has been to improve grower confidence in the major pulse crops, chickpeas and mungbeans. Only three to five years ago, growers and agronomists in Queensland (Qld) did not have reliable, locally derived information on key fundamental aspects of production such as: Plant population and row spacing: Region specific experiments have provided firm recommendations…Region: North
