Attention Soybean growers in Sask

[Klause]

White mold is here. We put fungicide on today. Infection rate is fairly high.



scout your fields!

I seen the first trace of it in my yard two days ago, I will have to check my soybeans.

If you see it , it is probably too late too spray.

[Braveheart]

Agstar, do you spray fungi on beans?

[farmaholic]

I thought they didn't have much disease problems?

[SASKFARMER3]

Sprayed this morning!

[Guest]

hows all the peas lookin , havent grown em for years sprayed them yesyerday with priaxor , 3 ft high, cant see any disease ?maybe dont know what i am lookin for ....

[Hopperbin]

If there is something there klause will find it. Thought his beans were 4 inches tall from the road at 100k. I am likely shorting them. shit is growing fast here sure need another rain. Some neighbour's talking no fungicides. But boy is it humid out there with no air conditioning.

[furrowtickler]

Peas ok , no disease yet, other than root rot in a few low spots . But as of this morning we have every single decent rain now for a month so no fungicide yet - it will be a waste of money shortly .

[agstar77]

No I don't spray. Should be sprayed at flower stage if you are going to. Tests show spraying pays 1 in 4 years. So should spray? Shot in the dark , only if wet warm and a heavy stand. Most fungicides not very effective since it is hard to get spray coverage of flowers through canopy.

Same as agstar. I have been Growing beans for 16 years, never once sprayed. A few neighbours do test fields once in awhile just to see if there is a benefit. Local Govt studies show little effect. Seems you guys in sk have a spending problem, trying to turn soy production into high priced canola production. At least do some test strips to verify results
