[QUOTE="Two Tone, post: 8128512, member: 44728"] I would suggest that in many ways, Fungicide promotion has been a hugely successful “propaganda’’ tool by the big companies. Companies such as Syngenta, have been very clever with their Fungicide Challenge events. Ours here, consistently showed that they are merely an insurance, rather than essential. In dry years, most groups over-spent. Only in wet years and particularly very wet years, do they pay well. Funny though, how Synhenta’s own program nearly always seemed to win! Very cleverly, we have been lead to believe that if we don’t stick to the rigid T programs, wheat will yield nothing! We absolutely cannot avoid controlling weeds. Yet promotion of Fungicides seems to outweigh Herbicides. The one we can’t avoid doesn’t need so much promotion. The one not so essential gets pushed to make sure we keep up the spend. [/QUOTE]
