Disease issues with pulse-on-pulse cropping locations
Aims

To discuss disease issues with pulse-on-pulse cropping.

Key messages

Drought conditions throughout the Mallee and Wimmera last year (2002) resulted in poor growth in most pulse crops, with many crops failing. It is very tempting to re-sow paddocks to the same crop or another pulse in 2003. However, there are several disease management issues growers should be aware of before deciding to replant on pulses.
