Wheat Yield Response To Nitrogen Rate Depends On Foliar Fungicide Application, R. P. Lollato, L. O. Pradella, N. Giordano, L. Ryan, L. M. Simão, J. R. Soler
Wheat Yield Response To Nitrogen Rate Depends On Foliar Fungicide Application, R. P. Lollato, L. O. Pradella, N. Giordano, L. Ryan, L. M. Simão, J. R. Soler
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Nitrogen (N) and fungicide are among the most important factors impacting wheat yields in Kansas. However, there is limited information on whether foliar fungicides interact with N rates in wheat yield determination. Thus, our objectives were to evaluate wheat yield as impacted by different N rates with or without the use of foliar fungicide. One field experiment was established using a factorial structure of five N rates (0, 30, 60, 90, and 120 pounds of N per acre) by two fungicide management practices (either absent or 13 fluid ounces per acre of Nexicor) in a split-plot design near Hutchinson, KS, …
Comparison Of Sensitivity To Fusarium Head Blight In Soft Red And Hard Red Winter Wheat Varieties, G. Sassenrath, K. Andersen Onofre, J. Lingenfelser, X. Lin
Comparison Of Sensitivity To Fusarium Head Blight In Soft Red And Hard Red Winter Wheat Varieties, G. Sassenrath, K. Andersen Onofre, J. Lingenfelser, X. Lin
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Fusarium head blight (scab) is a problem for wheat production in high rainfall areas. This is a report of research examining the response of wheat varieties on disease susceptibility and wheat yield and quality. Hard red wheat varieties had more disease than the soft red wheat varieties in 2021. Wheat yield was correlated with disease severity.
Increasing Winter Wheat Grain Yield By Replicating The Management Adopted In High-Yielding Commercial Fields, L. Ryan, L. A. Haag, J. D. Holman, R. P. Lollato
Increasing Winter Wheat Grain Yield By Replicating The Management Adopted In High-Yielding Commercial Fields, L. Ryan, L. A. Haag, J. D. Holman, R. P. Lollato
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Large winter wheat yield gaps between farmer yields and yield potential in the southern Great Plains indicate the need to improve recommendations of best management strategies to profitably bridge this gap. Many studies have been completed on individual management factors pre-determined by the individual researcher, but we are not aware of studies comparing combination of practices that producers are currently using, which would be more relevant for real-world scenarios. Our objective was to determine the yield gains resulting from management intensification using combination of practices currently adopted in commercial wheat fields. Four management intensities (i.e., Low, Average, High, and Top) …
Winter Wheat Response To Timing Of Fungicide Application During The 2020–2021 Growing Season, G. Cruppe, N. Giordano, L. M. Simão, L. Ryan, L. O. Pradella, J. R. Soler, R. P. Lollato
Winter Wheat Response To Timing Of Fungicide Application During The 2020–2021 Growing Season, G. Cruppe, N. Giordano, L. M. Simão, L. Ryan, L. O. Pradella, J. R. Soler, R. P. Lollato
Kansas Agricultural Experiment Station Research Reports
Foliar fungicides applied at the flag leaf stage can improve wheat grain yield in Kansas, but there is limited information on the impact of earlier or combined applications of fungicide on wheat grain yield. We conducted a field study in six Kansas locations during the 2020–2021 growing season to evaluate the yield and test weight of the winter wheat variety WB-Grainfield in response to different fungicide application timings. The trial was conducted in a randomized complete block design with four replications to evaluate (1) a non-treated control; Topguard applied at 5 ounces per acre at (2) jointing, (3) heading; and …
