An integrated systems-based approach for pest management in Australian macadamia
This investment is establishing a decision-support system to facilitate timely and effective pest management decisions for Australian macadamia growers and other industry stakeholders.
Previous levy-funded work Integrated pest management program for the Australian macadamia industry (various projects from MC16004 to 16008) established a knowledge database of key pests, biocontrol agents, and key priorities for pest management in macadamia. However, pest management options based on precise treatment thresholds and economic injury have not yet been established.
This project is developing a comprehensive, integrated management package that incorporates ecological and environmental dimensions and fits into the regional/local macadamia orchards ecosystem.
