What do we Know About Wheat Rust Losses?
“The wheat rusts, historically, have been diseases of great
importance. The losses caused by…the three wheat rusts
worldwide over the centuries have been substantial….
Unfortunately, in many instances, recording and
quantification of the rust diseases and the losses attributed
to them have not been adequate. All too often, references to
their occurrence appear in obscure publications and only
when an epidemic is unusually severe."Roelfs, Singh and Saari (Rust Diseases of Wheat, CIMMYT 1992)

Rust and R&DRust and the Red Queen’s Race
"Well, in our country," said Alice, still panting a little, "you'd generally get to somewhere else—if you run very fast for a long time, as we've been doing."
…. said the Queen. "Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!“
Lewis Carroll (Through the Looking Glass, 1871)
Ruttan and Rust“If the research effort required to maintain productivity is a positive function of the productivity level, it seems apparent that maintenance research will rise as a share of the research budget…..”
Vernon Ruttan (Agricultural Research Policy, 1982)
Resistance Genes as Biological Capital“Breeding new crop varieties with resistance to the biotic stresses that undermine crop yields is tantamount to increasing the amount and quality of biological capital in agriculture.
However, the success of genes that confer resistance to pests induces a co-evolutionary response that depreciates the biological capital embodied in the crop, as pests evolve the capacity to overcome the crop's new defences.
Thus, simply maintaining this biological capital, and the beneficial production and economic outcomes it bestows, requires continual reinvestment in new crop defences.”
Beddow et al. (Nature Plants, September 2015)

Take Home Messages Almost all of the world’s wheat crop is susceptible to infection from wheat rusts
• Globally only 3.2 percent of the crop is grown in areas not susceptible to infection
• 62.7 percent of the crop is in areas that are vulnerable to all three rusts
Losses at any particular location or point in time are NOT representative of the average annual global losses worldwide over the longer term
Using a Monte Carlo probabilistic approach applied to 15 epidemiological zones with variable vulnerability to the rusts we find that:
• Global losses from all three rusts average at least 15.04 million tons (552.8 million bushels) per year. This is equivalent to an annual average loss of around US$2.9 billion (2010 prices) per year.
• The economically justifiable investment in wheat rust R&D is conservatively estimated to be $108 million per year (effectively in perpetuity!)
o This is equivalent to an annual investment of $0.51 per hectare per year (across the world’s 212.38 million wheat hectares)
