Almonds
Crop protection for Australian Almond growers
Producing a quality almond crop requires careful management across every stage of the season. From early-season weed control and insect management through flowering and nut development, growers need reliable crop protection strategies that can respond to changing conditions and pest and disease pressure.
Almond orchards can face a range of disease challenges, including brown rot, shot role, ruse and hull rot. Timely applications and considered disease management are important to protecting developing nuts, maintaining tree health and supporting crop quality through to harvest.
ADAMA Australia offers a broad range of solutions for almond production, backed by technical knowledge and practicle experience to help growers manage challenges throughout the season.
