For growers using susceptible wheat, seed treatment with copper carbonate is advised, though soil spores remain a primary loss source. Long crop rotations, early seed-bed prep, burning stubble, and avoiding diseased hay help control. Resistant varieties include Beneubbin Geeralying Apollo Ghurka Pusa 4 Todadgin.

Pasture Development Advances Highlighted by Dr Richardson
Dr A E Richardson, deputy CEO of the Commonwealth Council for Scientific and Industrial Research, spoke at the Chamber of Agriculture convention on improving pastures. He outlined key gains: superphosphate use on natural pastures, legume stimulation, surface sowing of Subterranean clover, improved pasture mixtures, and rotation grazing with conservation. He noted nitrogen as a major improver, the value of strain selection, and the need for climate suited species, balanced pastures, and mower and rest cycles to maintain fertility and protein balance.

The Grain Elevators Board advances a bulk handling system for the next Victorian wheat crop. Construction of 55 country elevators is underway across the Wimmera and Mallee with reinforced concrete walls rising on elevated sites. A 91-unit contract at 11 country stations near Geelong was awarded last year, with work starting May 1938 at Gana. Over 500 workers are employed as walls rise and foundations are laid, with future station starts planned and rail sidings adapted by the Railway department.
