Stripe Rust Disease Ratings

from GRDC Podcast Hosted by Grains Research and Development Corporation

Last year along the east coast of Australia, stripe rust was a huge issue and experts are warning that in 2023, growers will continue to experience stripe rust pressure with wet summer conditions and significant green bridge carryover from last year, creating the perfect storm for the disease. The good news is there's a free online tool that growers can use to avoid highly susceptible varieties in their regions and develop management plans to minimise impacts. Called the NVT disease ratings tool. It looks at more than just stripe rust. With national trial data broken down by crop, location and pathotype resistances. We caught up with Dr. Steven Simpfendorfer, Senior plant pathologist at New South Wales, DPI based in Tamworth, to discuss the stripe rust situation and what growers can do about it this season.
