Abstract

Foliar diseases of corn occur annually in Iowa and may reduce yield. Foliar applied fungicides often reduce yield. Recently, a new fungicide product from FMC that is applied in-furrow at planting has demonstrated efficacy against gray leaf spot and northern corn leaf blight in the southeastern US. Inadequate nitrogen may affect yield of corn. The objectives of this project were to compare fungicides applied in-furrow at planting with foliar applications for yield response of hybrid corn, discern differences, if any, between fungicide products, and investigate the effect of nitrogen on fungicide yield response.
