The purpose of this study is to evaluate different foliar fungicides, applied at the R1 growth stage, and their impact on yield and profitability.

This summer we saw minimal disease pressure in this plot. Even in the absence of disease, late-season fungicide applications have shown to increase yields, and this season was no exception. The response of XL® 6158AM™*brand to a fungicide application is not all that surprising given it has a high response to fungicide rating and a lower staygreen rating. Although only a slight yield increase of 3 Bu./A. was observed, the areas where a fungicide was applied stayed greener longer and saw increased yields. This also increased stalk strength and resulted in less loss at harvest from lodging.
