Aims
  • To determine the optimum fungicide strategy for disease control in Farah, Fiesta VF and Nura faba bean.
Key messages
  • The late break (12 June) and prevailing seasonal conditions were unfavourable for the spread of disease, although chocolate spot and rust did infect the trial plots early in the season. Disease was not a yield limiting factor in this trial this year.
  • No significant difference was recorded between any of the different fungicide spray programs within varieties or between varieties.
  • Fiesta VF plots had a reduced plant population compared to the other varieties due to poor seed quality of the commercial seed sourced.y treatment.
