Aims

To evaluate potential new foliar fungicide spray strategies and varieties for management of aschochyta blight in chickpeas. 

Key messages
  • Although it was a dry year, the results highlighted significantly less ascochyta blight infection in Genesis 090, which is rated MS as compared to PBA Striker which is rated S.
  • There was also significantly higher infection in the variety PBA Striker when Bixafen + Prothioconazole or Tebuconazole + Azoxystrobin were used after the first signs of infection compared to when they were used as a preventative spray.
