Download PDF Barley diseases are posing more than just a challenge as single site modes of action have taken a battering in recent years. But through careful management and using multi-site actives, growers can take the fight to the diseases. CPM investigates. Single site resistance has become an issue as we’ve moved away from multi-site use. By Melanie Jenkins Barley is a staple in most arable rotations, but disease resistance to single site chemistry is causing some headaches, especially when quality is compromised as well as yield. And when ineffective chemistry is used or good chemistry is badly timed, it can mean throwing good money after bad. But by focusing on careful management of effective chemistry and adopting cultural controls can help to prolong the life of the available actives and keep disease to a minimum. CPM discusses the pathology of barley diseases with SRUC’s Dr Neil Havis and how to best manage them with Adama’s Andy Bailey. How has fungicide resistance evolved? Single site resistance has become an issue as we’ve moved away from multi-site use. The benefits of single sites are their specificity and initial strength against diseases, but they are also far more susceptible to resistance. Strobilurins…
