Foliar-Applied Fungicides for
Application on Small Grain Crops
in Minnesota --
Current as of May 2005
Update 05-23-05: A Section
18 application allowing Minnesota wheat and barley
producers to apply Folicur for Fusarium head blight
control was submitted to the EPA earlier this year.
Earlier this year, the EPA granted a Section 18 for
Folicur application in Kentucky after that state declared
a crisis exemption allowing use of the product for 15
days. The agency recently approved Section 18 applications
for Montana and South Dakota, but has requested additional
information from extension plant pathologists in
Minnesota, North Dakota, and Michigan.
