Key conclusions from the latest fungicide performance results for wheat, barley and oilseed rape.

Do biostimulants have a role to play in the production of cereals and oilseeds?

Use the UKCPVS resistance information and Recommended Lists (RL) disease resistance ratings to guide yellow rust management.

The latest RL strengthens varietal traits for yield, agronomy, disease and quality characteristics.

High winter rainfall encourages the development and spread of light leaf spot in infected oilseed rape.

Based on RL data and parental diversity information, use the variety blend tool to select mixes for on-farm testing.

These static light leaf spot forecast maps provide an indication of historic disease risk in Great Britain.

The 2021 forecast has been refined, partly in response to industry concerns that the service had become disconnected from field realities.

Disease ratings have declined for many winter wheat varieties, with the largest declines in varieties with Cougar in their parentages.
