Second year carry-over benefits of seed dressing for soilborne diseases in the Eastern Wheatbelt locations

Aims

To determine the carryover benefit of seed dressings for soilborne diseases in the eastern wheatbelt.

Key messages

In 2018 there was a reduction in crown rot severity when Product X was applied, however this did not improve yield
2019 pre-season PreDictaB results showed a reduction in crown rot risk for Evergol, Product X and Vibrance
The second year had no carry over benefit of seed dressings or previous year’s variety. These seed dressings are only effective in the year applied and effectiveness can be influenced by initial inoculum level and how conducive the season is for the disease
