As we are entering a key time for disease management I decided to try to accelerate the pressure a little to try and pick out the optimum timings for fungicide application. Knocking down Microdochium populations early will help to keep disease pressure lower through this high pressure time from early September through to November when the… Read More Accelerating the pressure

As we move closer to the period of high disease pressure I’ve begun taking a look at the historical disease pressure in my area. 2017 shows disease pressure ramping up around the 10th September. Historically this is also the time when growth growth potential begins to slow and drop below the 60% mark and whilst growth… Read More Mounting Microdochium Pressure
