It\u2019s a disease that is often not too bad but can move quickly and cause yield loss. Some folks reporting that it wasn\u2019t visible at all a week ago but is now in many fields. Certain varieties are more susceptible to it and later in the growing season it is worse. Our UGA plant pathologist, Alfredo Martinez says we can apply a fungicide to help with this problem but it needs to go out quickly. Labeled fungicides of choice would be Topguard, Priaxor, and Veltyma, among others. Contact us for rates and more information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If grain is already hard its far enough along that a fungicide won\u2019t be needed.
