Fungicide resistance: Managing the risk

Manage fungicide resistance with smarter strategies and less spraying. The Australian Fungicide Resistance Extension Network (AFREN) shows you how. As resistance to key fungicides increases, growers are encouraged to spray only when needed and to adopt integrated disease management. Dr Steve Simpfendorfer (@nswdpird) says overreliance on fungicides “backs us into a corner”, with resistance now appearing across multiple pathogens and regions. ✅ Correctly identify diseases before spraying ✅ Use varietal resistance and non-chemical tactics first ✅ Apply fungicides only when necessary Watch here👉: http://bit.ly/4nYBq16
