Each December, AHDB hosts the Agronomists’ Conference. In 2020, the conference was held online (due to coronavirus restrictions) over several days – with elements called ‘Agronomy Week’ or ‘Agronomists’ Induction’.

Knowledge of the potential power of an active ingredient (or product) is essential in disease management. First and foremost, it will help you gauge the potential return on your spray investments. Critically, it can be used to develop effective fungicide programmes that balance the need to control disease with the need to protect chemistry from fungicide resistance.

This year, it is the turn of Stuart Knight (NIAB) to outline the trends in the performance of fungicides at the AHDB Agronomy Week.

Following this Jonathan Blake (ADAS) and Lise Jørgensen (Aarhus University) will demonstrate the developments in the management of fungicide programmes by reflecting upon their work further afield. In particular the Eurowheat and Eurobarley projects, which use common trial protocols across Europe with a focus on septoria and ramularia control.

The session will conclude with an open panel session.

BASIS/NROSO points will not be available to claim for this session after 18 December 2020.
