1 S READ LISTED PRECAUTIONS CAREFULLY, AS CONTROL MAY BE DECREASED DO NOT apply products unless conditions for application are verified by crop scouting thresholds or label recommendations. BE AWARE that recommendations are for the states of Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin OY. Applicators in other states should READ LABEL for rates and precautions, and check with your state Department of Agriculture for product registration prior to use in your state. Applicators in Illinois, Iowa and Wisconsin should check GENERAL PROPERTIES table to assure that product is registered for use in your state.

18 RISK FACTORS FOLIAR FUNGICIDE DECISION MAKING Research has shown that foliar applications of fungicides can increase yields and seed quality by controlling foliar diseases, such as gray leaf spot, common rust, northern corn leaf blight and others. In addition, these fungicide applications also frequently result in improved late season stalk integrity and overall better plant health. Yield increases with timely fungicide applications have often been substantial where disease pressure has been high or susceptible hybrids are grown. Below is a checklist, modified from a soybean foliar fungicide checklist originally developed at the University of Illinois. This table can assist in determining the advisability of applying a foliar fungicide. FUNGICIDE APPLICATION CHECKLIST FOR CORN FOLIAR DISEASES RISK FACTORS POINT VALUE IF ANSWER IS YES Rainfall, dew and humidity up to the period from silking to brown silk are Below Normal...0 pt Normal...2 pt Above Normal...4 pt Corn grown in the field last year... 2 to 3 pt Reduced or No-Till Practices...2 pt Early-maturing corn hybrid (not full season)... 1 to 2 pt Stated resistance to foliar diseases is low to moderate...2 pt Yield potential better than 180 bu/a...2 pt Corn grain is destined for premium market...4 pt Early evidence of foliar diseases on plants or in field...2 pt Foliar diseases (like gray leaf spot) obvious by brown silk stage...2 pt Other conditions favor disease development *... 1 to 3 pt * Weather forecast with a 30-day period of greater than normal rainfall and/or a field history of disease. **If the total point value is 13 or higher, fungicide application will likely result in increased yields and improved late season stalk integrity. total** RISK FACTORS 1-160
