Yellow rust control should be cheap enough anyway. It's the septoria and eyespot control that costs but may not be needed anyway.
I'm just about to apply Teb to bad YR in one field of Zyatt but advised to use Velogy era? plus CCC plus Moddus plusTeb to all wheat, as yet nothing applied and not in a hurry to do anything, Extase very clean.

Just about to go and walk and make a decision
Only fung here so far is some Teb on a block of my best OSR, the rest has had none and neither has any other crop yet
The Wheat is full of potential, but Sep can be found on the lower leaves, i might find YR today and showers are forecast next week, something will go on Wheat at T1 but it won’t break the bank and will be justified if the weather gets catchy

T0 only on rusty varieties. Cheapish T1 planned on everything with use up stocks of epoxy + folpet + CCC + Canopy (where thicker) + manganese. We didn't want to risk crops staying clean until flag leaf plus the leaves are close to the stems, so septoria in the bottom of ALL varieties can be transferred up to newer leaves by contact on frosty/dewy + windy mornings.

Leaf 3 not out far enough to spray yet. Probably starting later this week on mid September sowings.

Presumably folpet is the ctl substitute ?

Partly. It was the only way I could buy epoxiconazole last autumn, but it fits the programme. Folpet isn't as good as CTL so I didn't want to spend a lot on it.

Colder weather will increase the latency time for septoria development before it shows clinical symptoms, so I'd be a bit wary of cutting the spend too much.

I was just going with straight Teb until agronomist found rust. Adding Amistar as Teb not strong enough alone on the rust
