A great tour of PBI Cobbitty, University of Sydney University of Sydney with Drs. Karanjeet Sandhu & Davinder Singh and Matthew Williams. An impressive and crucial infrastructure for cereal rusts research. I haven’t seen such an impressive infrastructure for rust research anywhere in US/Canada.

Favourable conditions caused a surge in African black beetles during summer, particularly in kikuyu grass. This raises the risk of damage to young plants, pastures, and cereal crops this autumn, making monitoring crucial. NSW Agronomy GRDC Suzanne Boschma Steven Simpfendorfer
