Brief description
Files within this collection contain data on a range of experimental trials informed by industry need/enquiry within the project period. Examples of trials includes: Comparisons of various sampling methodologies; Development of new recommendations of sampling methodologies; Relative efficacies of different actives; Relative efficacies of different application methods; Quantifying damage of specific pets on specific crops at different crop/pest maturity stagesFull description
Trials within this project are many and varied. Not all treatments were applied in each trial, nor were all variables measured in each trial.
