Maryland, along with the entire Atlantic Coast region, often has high humidity during much of the growing season. Because of that, disease pressure tends to be high. When companies release new fungicides for in-season soybean applications, farmers want to know how they compare to other commonly used products under real-world conditions. This research provides this information through annual comparison trials. This includes evaluation of Miravis fungicides, recently released by Syngenta containing two modes of action and labeled for two consecutive applications 14 days apart.
