[QUOTE="ollie989898, post: 5961524, member: 54866"] It would be too early to see symptoms of BYDV yet in my view. This is typical barleyitis/cereal 'winter disease' where it gets cold and wet and looks worse for wear, can be a bit scary because often it happens so fast. It doesn't help having crops sown early and into a warm dry autumn, the crop gets way ahead of itself with a lot of foliage and the next minute you look around after Christmas and the stuff is either riddled with mildew or gone yellow and stringy, or both. It often recovers spontaneously as the soils warm and dry out but it is something to be mindful off, the stuff can literally fade out to near nothing if you leave it and leave it. In a few weeks once the nitrogen is on and the sun comes out it will be a different crop entirely; a lot of that foliage you see there won't even see the light of day in a few months. I would not go slapping maximum rates of trace element products on because it all costs money and the effects are often transient, there is also the question of whether it will actually translate into higher yields at this stage.
