"Most fungicides resulted in greater breakeven probabilities with increasing disease severity. The results emphasize that fungicide applications occurring at VT/R1 and when disease severity exceeds 5% are more likely to result in a positive economic gain."

"The ugly stage” after spraying. We’ve all seen it, and it’s nerve-racking every time.
But the crop bounces back, and the weeds don’t!

As we get further into May, it’s important to understand hybrid growing degree day compression and not pulling the trigger too soon on switching maturities.
