Average Benefit on Fungicide Use – North Carolina

“Routine application

  • f any of the three

fungicide classes to wheat fields every year was a losing proposition.” “But the average long‐ term net returns from

  • nly applying

fungicides when disease was over threshold were excellent; ranging from $9 to $13 per acre. ”

Fungicide Observations/ Conclusions

  • Foliar fungicides w ill protect yield that is present at

the tim e of application – better to spray a little early than a little late

  • Apply w ith ground rig or aerial – key is to apply in a

tim ely fashion

  • Not only protects yield, but also results in higher test

w eight/ quality

  • Consider early application ( GS 6 -7 ) if have lots of

w heat residue and see tan spot, pow dery m ildew , and/ or Septoria early, or see num erous stripe rust hot spots

  • Know the reaction of your planted varieties to foliar

diseases, scout your fields, and m onitor w hat is happening to the south
