NDSU Crop and Pest Report - May 16, 2013
Crop Plant Disease Information New for 2012 (4/26/12)
Most decisions on variety or hybrid choice and appropriate seed treatments should have been made by now for most crops. The NDSU Extension Plant Pathology web site, at www.ag.ndsu.edu/extplantpath/ has links to several updated Fungicide Guides that provide information on seed treatment and/or foliar fungicide use for ND crops. Included at this site, under the publications column on the right of the home page, are links to the 2012 Fungicide Guide and the updated 2012 Wheat Fungicide Efficacy Table. Also included are links to several NDSU Extension plant pathology publications published in the last 12 months, including fact sheets on Anthracnose in Dry Beans (PP-1233), Bacterial Leaf Streak and Black Chaff in Wheat (PP-1566), Dry Bean Rust (PP-1601), and Sunflower Rust (PP-1557).
