GrowNotes Alert is an innovative tool, jointly developed by Grains Research and Development Corporation (GRDC) and the Department of Economic Development, Jobs, Transport & Resources (DEDJTR), providing timely alerts on the incidence, prevalence and distribution of crop pests, diseases and weeds.

The app will benefit grain growers, agricultural and cropping consultants, advisers, researchers, decision-makers and other industry bodies and personnel nationwide.

Disease, weeds and pests costs growers billions annually in losses to valuable income and potential food to feed a growing population. Knowing what is present, and where, is valuable intelligence that growers and industry can use to reduce this. Reporting is often based on limited data and different intelligence gathering. GrowNotes Alert will build on existing processes to develop a standard operating procedure between organisations, ensuring a consistent approach to analysing threats.
