T3
Protecting Yield and Quality from Late Season Diseases
In general, the 2018 wheat crop is relatively clean from a disease standpoint. Some earlier planted fields with a nice thick canopy do have some powdery mildew however the pressure remains low. There are some fields with low levels of septoria leaf spot as well. If a T1 fungicide was applied, these early season diseases were well looked after.
Knowing what stage your crop is at is critical for fungicide considerations.
