Resilient Crop Protection Systems | Grower Perspectives from the PBRI Symposium 2026

Building resilient crop protection systems was a key theme of the PBRI Symposium. Through this video, growers share their experiences managing biosecurity risks and the importance of practical tools, research and strategies that can be applied across different production environments.

Their insights reinforced the value of designing research with end users in mind and ensuring solutions can be implemented effectively on farms, in orchards, vineyards and nurseries.

We are grateful to the growers who generously contributed their time and insights:

Kim Chalmers, Chalmers Grapevine Nursery
Ron Hards, Grain Grower
Luke Benham, Aroona Almond Farms
