Heavy Sclorotinia

[may-be]

Sclerotinia very bad in manitoba too. Everyone here uses fungicides, if you didnt the crop will be very very diasapointing. Lots of black dust, need to wipe off the swather windshield quite often.

IN my part of Manitoba everyone also uses fungicides. A couple weeks ago I told one guy that I did not spray for sclerotinia. He looked at me like I was from another planet. lmao

I have about 2-3 infected plants per acre. My crop was early and was blooming before we got rains. The brix was also high. From the road it looks like it should be swathed, but the seeds are just starting to turn

Good to see the reality of high brickle and low disease . Farmers need to rethink plant health not bandaid solutions offered by Chem companies .
But unfortunately products that help sugar levels are precieved as snake oil by most of the Ag industry - pushed by Chem and line companies to keep farmers blinders on
