Severe Stripe Rust Showing Up In Manitoba Fields

Jul 14, 2017

 
There are reports of stripe rust across Manitoba, with high severity showing up in fields that did not receive a fungicide application.
 
That according to the latest Insect and Disease Update released by Manitoba Agriculture.
 
The province says if the crop is past the flowering stage, a fungicide application is likely not warranted.
 
When it comes to insects, thistle caterpillar and their webbing continue to be quite noticeable in some soybean fields.
 
Aphids are at high levels in some cereal fields in the central region.
