What the test plot data shows, is that the probability of fungicide treatments to increase soybean yields depends upon disease severity in the field,” said Emmanuel Byamukama, SDSU Extension Plant Pa- thologist. Byamukama explained that the study was motivated by the fact that in South Dakota several acres of soybeans are routinely treated with fungicides. According to a 2012 United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) report, 11 percent of soybean acres were treated with a fungicide in the 19 major soybean producing states, including South Dakota. Foliar fungicide trials The trials were planted at the SDSU Southeast Research Farm, in Beresford on May 28, 2015, and at the Volga Research Farm on June 2, 2015. Plot size used was 5-feet- Yield (a) and disease severity (b) for different fungicides applied at beginning of flowering at Volga (blue bars) and Beresford (red bars) during the 2015 growing season. - See more at: http://igrow.org/news/didit-pay-to-apply-foliar-fungicides-in-soybeans/#sthash. gcT2kePt.dpuf 1310 Construction 1315 Now Hiring: Full-time experienced carpenter.

Six commonly applied foliar fungicides in soybeans in South Dakota were used in this study. The fungicides were applied at R3 (beginning pod) growth stage. Plots were assessed for disease severity (percent plot disease severity on the upper canopy) 28 days after fungicide application. “We saw very low foliar disease pressure in soybeans at both locations. Yield data showed no statistical difference within fungicides and also when compared with non-treated plots,” said Byamukama (Fig.1). “The lack of statistical difference indicates that the numerical difference between fungicides and non-treated plots can be attributed to chance.” Byamukama said this is not surprising given that there was such low disease pressure at both test locations. “We did notice, however, at the Volga location where there was some disease presence, that all fungicide treated plots had significantly lower disease severity compared to non- Drivers 1320 NOW HIRING!
