Aims

To examine the influence of fungicide timing and rate for the prevention of disease and green leaf retention in grain maize grown on grain maize stubbles.

Key messages
  • Application of different DMI (triazoles) and QoI (strobilurins) fungicides at either 8 leaf (V8) or tasselling (VT) resulted in no yield response over the untreated crop.
  • There was no observed effects of a fungicide application on green leaf retention post application.
