Application Features

About

MyPestGuide Diseases is a field guide and identification app that lets grain growers, farmers, agronomists and industry reps easily and quickly identify diseases of cereals, pulses, oilseeds and coarse grain crops, as well as stored grain and biosecurity diseases in Australia. 

The MyPestGuide Diseases field guide and identification app includes images and control information to help manage diseases but also works alongside the MyPestGuide Reporter app when further identification or advice is needed.  Your reports are received by experts at the Department of Agriculture and Food, Western Australia (DAFWA) who identify the pest, reply back to your device and map it online so everyone can learn about disease problems.

By using the MyPestGuide Diseases field guide and Reporter App you are supporting your local agricultural community, defending Australia’s grains industry and protecting the natural environment from exotic diseases of grain.
