    Too dry too long has a short, thin, open canopy with the soil surface dry. Low humidity during the day and not real dewy in the morning or at least not for long. Wind helping keep things dry. Wheat starting to head out...I won't have much time to decide at this rate but with the conditions the way they are....It hardly looks like it would pay.

    App cost? Fungicide, fuel, time, maintenance, sprayer depreciation (I can't put an hour on mine that doesn't erode it's value).

      I never seen any fungus grow in the dust...and that's what we have...so for this year, that's the least of our worries

      Now we are hoping for the lucky shot thunderstorm

        I haven't yet tried any on greenfeed but the last 2 wet summers left so much rust on the oats that the cows were less than impressed. Anyone ever do that?
        Years ago, we noticed less rust on Morgan oats by adding Bumper in with herbicide.

          I am starting to see the light at end of the tunnel with herbicide. Should be close to wrapped up the second pass of Liberty today. The Prosaro, Delaro, Proline can stay stacked to roof at the retailer.

              Here is some news I have only sprayed Canola on a few fields each year and the results show really no significant advantage.
              The year we had aster yellow blow in our canola puked.
              Last year used the most newest product against the cheapest and then nothing. Yield monitor showed field was consistent from one end to other.

              Micros are the newest thing . Boron etc. Thats this years tests.
