Control of Leaf Spot Diseases and Southern Stem Rot on Peanut with Headline F500 fungicide
نویسندگان
چکیده
Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) remains an important agronomic crop in Alabama, Florida, and Georgia. In recent years, the value of Alabama’s 190,000-acre peanut crop has exceeded $120 million annually. However, the diseases early leaf spot, late leaf spot, and southern stem rot may greatly reduce the profitability of Alabama’s peanut crop due to lower yields and poorer nut quality (7). Also, fungicides applied for the control of the above diseases account for a sizable percentage of the peanut production budget on many Alabama farms.

Strip tillage with various crop covers in peanut (Arachis hypogaea, L.) production has not shown a clear yield advantage over conventional tillage, but has been found to reduce yield losses from some diseases. This study was conducted to determine pod yield and disease incidence between two tillage practices, five winter cover crops, three peanut cultivars, and three fungicide programs. Convent...
متن کاملPreventing the Diseases of Peanuts
Prevention, rather than cure, is the rule with the diseases of peanuts. Some beneficial preventive measures are the application of fungicides to seed to prevent seed rot, the use of fungicidal dusts or sprays on grovv^ing plants to prevent leaf spot, and the treatment of soil with chemicals before planting to control nematodes and soil insects. Prevention involves more than the use of chemicals...
