The guide, "Setting your crop up for success in 2023" is to help producers navigate through the challenges they might face this year after last year's floods and wet season.

Topics covered in the guide include:
• A crop-by-crop guide to what diseases might be an issue after 2022.
• The method of spread of diseases - seed, stubble, soil and the like.
• Some brief management tips for growing a successful crop in 2023.
• The importance of knowing crop disease levels - testing seed, soil and stubble.
• What other issues may have arisen after 2022, such as the impact on nutrition, microbes and nematodes.
