Aims

To assess efficacy of registered fungicides for BGM control

Key messages
  • Botrytis grey mould resulted in 68% plant death in the untreated control plots on the 22nd of November.  
  • Products containing Group 7 (SDHI) fungicides including Filan, Miravis Star and Aviator Xpro were highly effective at controlling BGM.  
  • The product Filan provided both the highest level of BGM control and grain yield.  
  • The group 2 fungicide Sumisclex and combination products of group 3 + 11 fungicides, which were Veritas Opti and Amistar Xtra, also provided high levels of BGM control.
