Abiotic stresses of cool season pulses in Australia locations
Aims

To discuss abiotic stresses of cool season pulses in Australia.

Key messages
  • Abiotic stress can be reduced by choosing the most appropriate pulse species and adjusting agronomy (sowing time, plant density, soil management) to ensure sensitive crop stages occur at the most favourable time in the season. For example choosing the optimum sowing time, species and cultivars with appropriate phenology can reduce the effect of frost and drought in pulse crops in dryland environments with terminal stress.
  • For further management options please see the attached trial report.
