  1. 2014 High Yield and High Quality Wheat Program Step 1: Spray between feekes stage 5 - 8 Huskie 12.8 oz./acre + Stratego YLD 2.5 oz./acre + Foliar Fertilizer program + NIS @ 1 qt./100 gal. Step 2: Spray after heading, feekes 10.51 Prosaro 8.0 oz./acre + Baythroid XL 2 oz./acre + NIS @ 1 qt./100 gal. The best program for a grower trying to get maximum yields and premiums for his wheat crop.

  2. Early Season Wheat Application for Disease Control and Plant Health:-- Apply between feekes 5 and 8 growth stages. -- Use Stratego YLD 2.5 oz./acre + Foliar Fertilizer program (Slow release N 1 to 2 gallons/acre, Boron, Mn, Zn, ?) Consider tissue testing before this application.Keeps wheat clean from disease until Prosaro application.Two modes of action for early season disease control.Boost of nutrition when the wheat needs it without the burn.Can be mixed with herbicide programs like Huskie or Osprey. Healthy Fields = Higher Yields

  3. 2013 MSU Wheat Fungicide Trials: Martin Nagelkirk, MSU Extension wheat specialist McConnachie Farms, Deckerville, MI. Ambassador wheat variety Yield D.O.N. ppm 1. Untreated Check 87.8 bu/a 3.7 2. Prosaro at heading 104.5 bu/a 1.7 3. Stratego YLD feekes 7 fb Prosaro at heading 109.2 bu/a 1.4 Since 2008, a two step program of Stratego YLD sprayed early season followed by an application of Prosaro at heading has been the highest yielding treatment each year it’s been tested. Average 9 to 21 bu./acre increase vs. Untreated ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bayer CropScience Michigan Contacts: Dennis Clark, (south MI.) dennis.clark@bayer.comcell: 517-262-3958 John Martin, (western MI.) johno.martin@bayer.comcell: 810-444-0222 Mark Varner, (east MI.) mark.varner@bayer.comcell: 586-419-2140

  4. Observations and Notes: • Two fungicide applications go hand-in–hand with better nitrogen mgmt. • ie…fall starter N, split spring applications, higher N rates. • Apply 28% nitrogen in-season (feekes 5-7 after green-up) with streamers in a separate application from herbicides and fungicides. • Avoid planting wheat into any type of corn residue or trash. • Aerial application works great with Prosaro because our target is the head and flag leaf. Segregate parts of fields where airplane may not have reached like next to power lines, woods, fencerows, etc. May be differences in head scab (DON). • Powdery mildew, septoria, and fusarium head scab are our biggest disease issues in Michigan. Watch out for stripe rust, it is starting to show up more and more and can devastate yields. • Control yield robbing grasses in wheat like windgrass and annual bluegrass which are becoming more of a problem and spreading throughout the state. Use a post grass product like Osprey in the spring. • By March 31, 2014, see your retailer to discuss wheat fungicides and to find out about the $50/gallon rebate on Prosaro, the $70/gallon rebate on Stratego YLD, and the Bayer/John Deere Financing program.
