Aims
The objective of this trial was to evaluate a number of new and existing fungicides for the control of Wheat Leaf Rust (Puccinia recondita) in Kellalac Wheat.
Key messages
Key points to be taken from this trial are, ensure early sprays are applied when Wheat Leaf Rust is detected. All fungicide treatment with an early treatment resulted in a significant yield benefit. it is important to take into consideration the cost of any particular fungicide treatment and the potential yield response.
