BROAD BEAN CANOPY MANAGEMENT locations
Aims

To determine whether broad bean plant architecture (PBA Kareema) can be manipulated with the use of chemicals or agronomic management practices

Key messages
  • Agronomic or chemical assisted canopy management could have significant benefits to fungicide penetration and efficacy, disease intensity, grain yield and harvestability.
  • Four treatments reduced height without a significant yield penalty: Clomazone, Paraquat + Diquat (High), Ethephon (applied 26 Aug) and Ethephon (applied 9 Sept).
