Background Industry needs a ‘phosphine-resistance-breaker’
Immediate need to tackle flat grain beetles
Sulfuryl fluoride (ProFume®) currently registered
Fumiguide® does the calculation!
Very limited literature
No Australian studies

Overview of Results From most susceptible to most tolerant:
LGB = FGB > RW > RFB Trend consistent across all CTs
‘T’ has greater influence than ‘C’ on efficacy
Significant reduction in efficacy at lower temperatures
Data comparable to published reports
Phosphine resistance shows no cross resistance to SF Sorption a major issue

Sampling Protocol 23 sampling points 600-800g sampled (150 cm depth) One sampling at
a month before fumigation just before fumigation after clearance of gas monthly after clearance (4)
Temp. and moisture content of grain (150 cm.) Lab assessment: live adults and progeny (8-weeks)

Overview of Results SF fumigation successfully controlled all pest spp.
Most important outcome: control of StR-FGB
No live infestation detected for 4 months (established
through our sampling and on-site detection by storage staff)
No survivors from the original infestation (parents and progeny both controlled)
Re-infestation (invasion) did not occur
Top of bunker favoured for infestation (dominated by FGB and Psocids)

Conclusions SF has excellent potential as an alternative (fits well to current FGB Eradication Plan)
Current registered rate (1500 CT) adequate (fumigation period should be >6 days)
Significant benefit to the industry
Industry needs to use it strategically!
![Page 25: Successful management of strongly phosphine resistant stored grain pests](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042517/568c48281a28ab49168ef97d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)

Key Questions What Strategy to Adopt? To allow egg control
Long exposure: minimum of 6 days Short exposures: very high conc. needed
How Many Fumigations? (R-management/environment/residue issues)
only use where phosphine fails (eg. FGB problem)? use in between phosphine? limit number of fumigations?
![Page 26: Successful management of strongly phosphine resistant stored grain pests](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022042517/568c48281a28ab49168ef97d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Future Research Efficacy at higher temperatures (30◦C, 35◦C)
Recommendation Table for Industry
Explore partner fumigants for synergism
Determine ‘time to reinfestation’ by pests after
treatments (farm, central storage)
Develop resistance testing protocol
