Wild chickpea field trial in Mingenew – August 2019

Показать описание
The Centre for Crop and Disease Management researchers Lars and Silke spend a day scoring and measuring wild chickpeas at CCDM's Mingenew field trial site. This is part of our research to improve disease resistance of chickpeas.
Through lab and field based trials we are working to improve genetic sources to expand the crop’s diversity and improve the viability of chickpeas as an appealing Australian crop.
Over 60,000 plants were trialled by our team at three sites across Australia in 2019, with 450 lines selected for further testing for adaptation on a variety of soil types across 2020.
