To compare current and potential fungicide options for the control of blackspot in field pea.
Key messages
Chlorothalonil (Bravo), pyraclostrobin (Cabrio) and azoxystrobin plus chlorothalonil (Amistar
Opti) showed increased yield compared to the nil treatment, however further improvement is
possible as the response from fortnightly chlorothalonil sprays was even greater.
