Integrated Pest Management Options

Some differences in susceptibility between cultivars exist. Fields established under minimum tillage may have more disease. Spring planting may reduce incidence.

Foliar Treatment

Comments (Days to harvest, label precautions, etc.)
For seed production only. Ground and aerial application. Apply at 20%-50% flowering. Apply every 7-14 days if disease persists or weather conditions are favourable for disease development. Do not graze or feed treated hay to livestock. Maximum 3 applications/yr.
