To develop profitable and sustainable approaches to disease management in HRZ barley.
• There was no significant response in yield to the use of fungicides. This result is in line with those in 2021 and 2020. This again demonstrates that intensive fungicide management (multiple applications and expensive chemistry) may not be needed to grow barley in spring sown systems.
• There was no influence of fungicides on grain quality with the exception of retention, with untreated (92.6%) significantly lower than most other treatments (average 94.2%).
• Despite no significant differences in yield, low amounts of NFNB and scald were recorded in this trial.
