Aims

To maximise production advantages of new kabuli and desi chickpea varieties through the development of appropriate disease management strategies.

Key messages
  • Dry and hot conditions prevailed throughout late winter and spring limiting disease spread and plant growth.
  • There was no fungicide treatment effect on grain yield in 2007.
  • Fungicide treatments at early podding (pod), early and late podding (podplus) and strategic sprays (strat) had larger seeds than the control, but not significantly larger than fortnightly or systemic sprays.
