1 Preharvest treatments include applications of fungicides before heavy fog, dews, or rain. |
2 Preplant fumigation includes chloropicrin, 1,3-dichloropropene/chloropicrin or chloropicrin followed by metam sodium or metam potassium. Alternatively, make solitary applications of 1,3-dichloropropene/chloropicrin or chloropicrin. |
3 To reduce risk of fungicide resistance development, use an integrated program that includes a rotation of fungicides with different modes of action. |
