Downy mildew on CV Quattro

Spring Beans

In-season monitoring
Untreated reference crops will be used to provide updates on development of downy mildew on spring sown beans during the key risk period in May and June. Consultants will review the data and provide summary reports on disease severity, risk and control options. These reports will be available on the website by each Monday following an assessment.

National monitoring
Annual surveys of field beans diseases were conducted annually from 1991 to 1993 to monitor changes in crop disease status and crop protection practices. Surveys of field beans have now been discontinued due to changes in priority.
