Abstract

Fungicide use on hybrid corn continues to be of interest to many farmers in Iowa. The number of fungicides registered for use on corn continues to increase, especially with the introduction of various generics. The objectives of this project were to assess the effect of timing of application of fungicides on disease, evaluate the yield response of hybrid corn to foliar fungicide application, and discern differences, if any, between fungicide products.
