Row Crop Disease Considerations \u2013 4\/20\/2023<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you are finishing up planting corn and moving into peanuts & cotton it is a good idea for you to consider how you will go about giving these crops the best start that you can.  I thought I\u2019d share what Dr. Bob Kemerait emailed to Extension Agents this morning (un-edited!):<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most common question I am hearing from you now, other than what to do about corn eaten up by stubby-root nematodes (answer- \u201cDon\u2019t do that again\u201d) is \u201cWhat should I be putting in the furrow to protect my peanut crop from disease problems?\u201d Here are a few bullet points:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. To reduce risk to tomato spotted wilt (not \u201celiminate\u201d risk) use of Thimet as an at plant treatment is helpful, ESPECIALLY for peanuts planted in April or for a more-susceptible cultivar (see peanutrx.org).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Where peanut root-knot nematode is a problem, I would advise planting TifNV-HiOL.  But if a grower won\u2019t plant it, I advise planting during a \u201clow risk planting date window\u201d using AgLogic 15G or Velum + Imidiclolrid, or perhaps Vydate CLV. None of these reduce risk to spotted wilt, but Thimet doesn\u2019t fight nematodes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Hopefully growers are planting seed treated with Rancona or Trebuset. Both go a long way to fight seeding disease, e.g. Aspergillus crown rot, and are often all a grower needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Abound in-furrow in addition to these treatments offers further protection against Rhizoctonia and a little more (not much) against Aspergillus crown rot.  Azoxystrobin in-furrow is relatively inexpensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Use of Velum offers protection against nematodes. It also offers further protection against Aspergillus crown rot and a little early-season protection against leaf spot. But Velum is not cheap; I would struggle to recommend it if nematodes are not an issue, even though it helps with other problems as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6.  Proline in-furrow helps to fight CBR. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope this helps a little – remember for managing tomato spotted wilt – your choice of variety and planting date go a long way in determine the relative importance of other factors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Please feel free to call me if you have any questions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thanks,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
