To evaluate different barley varieties for yield and grain quality under both a nil foliar fungicide regime and a 3 spray fungicide regime.
Leaf rust, net blotch and barley scald were evident in the trial. The average yield response as a result of spraying with a fungicide was 900 kg/ha. Controlling leaf disease with the use of a fungicide significantly increased grain retention, reduced screenings and increased test weights. There was no significant effect on grain protein.
