 20 miles west of Indianapolis Indiana | For starters… I’m in west central Indiana and I can honestly say I haven’t seen these big gains guys claim they see from fungicide. It’s embarrassing to say since i sold seed but im a terrible disease scout. I’ve tried expensive versions. I’ve tried just AzxyProp and ive tried Lucenta because of green stems. I wanna keep trying, because I raise good beans and want to shoot for top yields and I pick beans for offense not necessarily defense. That being said, I need some advice on these thoughts.
Miravis Neo has great results according to Becks PFR and their testing stations are not that geographically different/far from us.
Miravis has a proprietary group 7 if I have my facts right. And also has 3&11 Azxystrobin and propiconazole (the cheap AzxyProp chemistry).
Lucenta has a different 7 and 3 than Miravis.
What is each doing and not doing for me as far as diseases controlled and residual or not doing? Is there a certain timing that would work better? I shoot for R3 +/- depending on weather forecast and life’s circumstances.
My thought is to try some AzxyProp only, some Lucenta only some Miravis only, some AzxyProp and Lucenta mixed. (AzxyProp and Lucenta would give me all 3 groups and double up on one, I could try Lucenta and just get some Azxystrobin to get a closer comparison of Lucenta+ vs Miravis Neo)
What kind of real world experience/advice can anyone give me when I go to scout and order? I’d like to get some stuff ordered soon and can look at adding a little later or carrying some over for next year if it’s common things
Edit to add: would there be any value in a 2 pass system of Lucenta in one pass and AzxyProp on another or vice versa?
