Wheat, that makes more sense, my mistake. I reckon that has been discussed before as well. Either you subscribe to the anti-resistance thing or you don't. I used to use it a bit when Atlantis was going on instead of using CTL.
As I said before, the money to have folpet in I could be having an sdhi in instead. Disease levels are v low (atm), if ever there was a year to be saving a bit, its probably right now. In that respect I cant see past a azole/strob tbh

There’s no rain in the forecast for the rest of the month, we might only see 6mm total (most of which was snow/sleet) for April
SB fungicide choice may not be the most important one we make this season, Fandango is normally a well priced product for lower pressure years...
No Folpet in barley or Wheat here, too much money and the anti-resistance bit is being overdone from what I’ve gleaned, luckily it’s looking like another rust year unless the weather changes dramatically so Revystar and Inatreq can hopefully be left in the distributors stores for another year prolonging it’s life another season !!
*view subject to change if May is a washout 😂

No chance. Just jaunt plus 2lt cheap CCC plus 0.1generic moddus plus Mn plus bittersalz. Happy with that. I will save/send back the flopit. T1 ww cheap enough too.
What your ww T1 going to be, I haven't done a TO and don't see any need to go much beyond exopi(use up in store) and then teb. I may chuck a strobe in but not sure. Teb T1 teb 1.5 if still rust about and then Sdhi at flag leaf would keep desease at bay unless it turns wet soon.

What action does teb have on septoria?

I bought flopit mixed with epoxi on a deal last autumn so that will be T1. No T0. I wondered about adding a strob but doubt I will bother. Prothio plus sdhi t2.

You ought to consider having some Proline in your spring barley fungicides somewhere. It has a good barley disease spectrum. Such a shame Aviator isn't approved on barley as it is very reasonably priced, unlike Siltra.

For me barley fungicide is proline by default and then add what takes your fancy be it strobe or Sdhi.
I will try my hardest to avoid siltra on principal that Bayer are just taking the wee wee when you look at the price of aviator and the price of siltra which are essentially the same product. 😡

The price of Aviator has to be worth using in a very competitive wheat fungicide market, though with the demise of epoxiconazole and CTL this may change. The barley fungicide market has far less competition, so Siltra carries a far higher profit margin for Bayer.

It’s another option, I liked adding fluxapyroxad for brackling but it’s invariably too dear, I did use some Priaxxor last year which was priced well
But it’s hard to look past Prothio containing products

I've used low dose Adexar in a spring barley T2 in the past in the hope of reducing brackling. It had little effect on the brackling, but 2 weeks of rain as the crop matured didn't help at all.
