Reviving GrubPlan to ensure appropriate use and application of imidacloprid for control of cane grubs
Abstract
The focus of the project was to: 1) Undertake a review of current practices, application technologies and extension methods with the intention of developing an updated best practice program for canegrub control - revised GrubPlan. 2) Pilot a rollout of revised GrubPlan, including risk assessment protocols, pesticide formulation selection, equipment calibration and correct application to industry via a consistent, well designed and properly resourced process.
