Lentil and chickpea fungicide evaluation for ascochyta blight locations
Aims

To evaluate the effectiveness of current and new fungicides in reducing ascochyta blight infection and maintaining grain yield and quality in lentils and chickpeas.

Key messages
  • Growers and advisers should be vigilant in applying protective fungicide sprays in chickpea and lentil crops for ascochyta blight.
  • Many current and minor use permit fungicides trialed at Hart in 2017 provided good preventative control (less than 10% of plants infected) for ascochyta blight including; chlorothalonil, Aviator Xpro, Cabrio and Captan.
