Australian Truffle Orchards Integrated Pest and Disease Management Manual

Click here to view the resource

The pests and diseases project took place from 2015-2019 and clarified the identity of the more abundant pest and disease agents and their pest status in Australian truffle orchards. The manual and field guide have been produced as a resource for Australian truffle growers to identify the risks posed by these agents and relevant details to help prevent them from affecting truffle production.

If you have any questions, please contact nspcoordinator@phau.com.au.

Pests can also be reported using apps, such as MyPestGuide® for Australia, that allow you to submit a photo of the pest or symptoms.
