    Abstract

    Data description: Socio-economic data was collected using in-depth phone interviews (82%) and self-administered questionnaires (18%) of growers across the West Australia Wheatbelt. The data contains qualitative and quantitative responses, including growers' demographic data, current knowledge about fungicide resistance problems, growers' subjective understanding of the causes of fungicide resistance, their current agronomic practices, what they were prepared to do to mitigate fungicide resistance risk and barley production statistics.
