FarmersWeekly "On crops with lower yield potential there may be scope to reduce fungicide spend, but remember good disease control on the flag leaf will be very important to maximise its potential." In the South, Mr Bullock says septoria levels are still fairly low ... and more »
FarmersWeekly A triazole/strobilurin/ chlorothalonil mix will be favourable at the T1 timing in crops that will benefit from the "greening" achieved with strobilurin applications. Mr Thirsk hopes the same chemistry will improve nitrogen uptake, which has been poor ... and more »
Irish Independent This robust fungicide may be considered either a T1 or a T2, with the possibility that one less fungicide may be applied this year. A typical wheat spray programme might include a product containing Boscalid along with a strong triazole such as Gleam ...
4-traders (press release) Dr Jayasena said growers selecting foliar fungicides should avoid using compromised triazoles (DMI). Several triazole products were still highly effective and products containing strobilurin were also effective. In addition, a permit has been issued in ...
FarmersWeekly While appreciating the need to ensure crops are protected from disease, he will be keeping an eye on fungicide costs with low disease pressure and lower yield potential of crops in his area. A triazole /strobilurin/chlorothalonil mix will be favourable ...
Farmers Guardian Where pyrethroid treatments are being applied in tank-mix with fungicide application around the flowering period, Mr Roberts urged growers to use azoxystrobin rather than a triazole in order to limit any risk to foraging pollinating insects. He says ... and more »
FarmersWeekly (blog) On winter crops the first fungicide should be applied soon, usually at early flowering and the first signs of disease; this will be based on cyproconazole + chlorothalonil. Possibly with the addition of a cost effective triazole such as tebuconazole or ...
FarmersWeekly Reports from Europe of the first cases of disease resistance in cereals to SDHI fungicides provide a timely warning just ahead of the spraying season, experts agree. But rather than causing widespread panic, the identification of just three isolates ...
FarmersWeekly (blog) More forward crops, if currently spotless, may be allowed to go to T1 before the first fungicide but this would have to be a much more robust mix. If, as is so often the case, spraying days are at a premium this may prove to be a high risk strategy. My ... and more »
FarmersWeekly He suggests using a SDHI fungicide , the most effective products against septoria, together with a triazole and the option of adding in chorothalonil as a protective product. There is disease on the lower dying leaves of many crops so if the weather ...
