Cercospora Leaf Spot in Sugarbeet
Sugarbeets All Locations
Cercospor Leaf Spot
Posted on: July 12, 2024 by Oliver Never
Sugarbeets - Treasure Valley, Western Magic Valley
University of Idaho and Amalgamated Sugar Company personnel have identified Cercospora leaf spot in fields near Parma ID, Wilder ID, and Glenns Ferry ID. Incidence is still low, however, most fields have closed rows, Cercospora spores have been detected in spore traps deployed in the Treasure Valley, and environmental conditions have been conducive for infection for a couple of weeks now.
If fungicide applications have not yet occurred, we strongly encourage everyone to start spraying against Cercospora leaf spot.
Several fungicides are available but be aware of multiple fungicide-resistant strains of Cercospora. Depending on the disease pressure and chemistry used, applications with different chemistries should be repeated every 14 days. Using a protectant such as copper products, EBDCs, or hydrogen peroxide with every spray is strongly recommended.[https://www.srcoop.com/articles/2024_Fungicide_Recommendations.pdf ]
Contact your crop consultant from the Amalgamated Sugar Company to discuss suitable fungicides for your area, to report a loss of fungicide efficacy, or if you have any questions.
