Rust in Dawsum

[ajd132]

I have found some rust developing in Dawsum, has anyone else seen this?

Not got Dawsum but disappointed about the amount of yellow rust in Extase … another one bites the dust!

I have 2 split fields of dawsum and JB Diego. Dawsum is clean as a whistle, Diego almost looks like it's been round upped.

Diego started breaking down years ago. You still getting on well with it?

Yes it still.....upto now, has done us very well.
I've been farm saving it for years and managed to get some of the last new C2 seed last autumn to grow on.
I think extase could be it's replacement here, It looks good so far.
Dawsum has done well the last couple of years but I do worry it'll be a here today gone tomorrow variety like most KWS varieties.

Yes seen at GS21 - end of tillering, dried up now though without any chemistry
