The barley X fungicide trials were established to compare barley yield and quality with no fungicide application to barley yield and quality with fungicide application
• In the presence of disease, fungicide application increased grain yield (kg/ha).
• Grain quality improved with fungicide application.
• In conjunction with a fungicide management strategy, growers should aim to select resistant barley varieties, using up-to-date disease guides for varietal choice.
