Abstract/Contents: | Profile "an online decision support tool called Greencast used in the USA [United States of America] to try to reduce prophylactic use of fungicides and encourage application only when occurrence of the disease is predicted," developed by Syngenta Crop Protection. States that "Greencast give predictions of no risk, low, medium and high disease risk presented as a map of the UK [United Kingdom] and Ireland for any given date, with regions coloured to identify the risk." Discusses research conducted to "validate the predictions from Greencast." Reports that "on average, 25% of untreated plots were infected with microdochium patch...four fungicidal applications were applied to the monthly treatments, which controlled microdochium patch...three fungicidal applications applied when medium risk was predicted and two applications when high risk was predicted gave...excellent disease control, with much less fungicide applied." Also reports that "Greencast also accurately predicted a severe dollar spot outbreak." |
