2020 winter spring insecticide spray guide is now available
DPIRD’s 2020 winter/spring insecticide guide is now available and can be downloaded for free at the department’s Insecticide spray guides for crops in Western Australia page.
This spray guide lists the latest registered chemicals and rates that can be applied to canola, lupin and cereal crops for controlling mature crop insect pests.
The department updates its autumn/winter and winter/spring insecticide spray guides annually to help growers and consultants manage insect pests in crops and pasture.
The spray guides are only a guide and growers still need to read chemical labels before use.
Not all insecticide trade names may be listed so growers should also check with their retailers for any other registered insecticide options.
To download these spray guides and other useful insecticide information visit the department’s Insecticide spray guides for crops in Western Australia page.
