The 2017/18 Viticulture Spray Guide is now available

The Department of Primary Industries and Regional Development’s Viticulture Spray Guide has been updated for the 2017/18 season and is now available to download.

The guide is a valuable resource for Western Australian wine and table grape producers and continues to be provided free of charge to industry.

Content includes:

  • pesticide safety and regulation
  • pesticide resistance
  • spray options for:
    • diseases
    • insects, mites and molluscs
    • herbicides
    • plant growth regulators
  • pest monitoring and treatment calendar.

The 2017/18 edition will continue to be updated throughout the season when applicable.

Other features include:

  • downloadable directly from the department’s website
  • searchable content
  • numerous links to additional information and external websites
