You're invited to a field walk where we will inspect the latest Wheat & Barley varieties planted over a range of planting dates, seeding rates, crown rot inoculum and seed dressing treatments. We will also inspect new milling oats.

Delivered through GRDC's National Grower Network, this event is led by MCA's Research Agronomists, Paul Castor & Brendan Burton. 

We will have Steven Simpfendorfer from NSW DPI leading crown rot discussions as well as seed company representatives from AGT & Intergrain.
