Reducing insecticide use in broad-acre grains production: an Australian study

Data was collected from replicated field-plot trials at five sites around Australia. The data consists of arthropod abundance collected using three methods (sweep nets, pitfall traps and vacuum sampler). We also include plant damage estimates and yield estimates.\nLineage: This data was collected by teams at each site on private land (see credit below). This project was funded by the Grains Research and Development Corporation (project UWA00134). We would like to thank the landholders for allowing us access to their properties and people who helped us from the farming-systems groups: BCG (Victoria), FarmLink Research (NSW), Yorke Peninsula Alkaline Soils Group (SA), Living Farm and Facey group (WA).
