Take It All

Take-All Patch is caused by the fungus Gaeumannomyces graminis var avenae. The disease generally appears in late spring or early summer. Above ground injury is due to root infection below ground because the fungus disrupts vascular tissue within the root.

Preventative fungicide programmes give the best results. This involves autumn and spring applications. Autumn application should occur when soil temperatures fall below 16°C, and this is now in many areas. Bayfidan* is registered for the control of Take-All at 6L/ha. Fungicides applications need to be washed into the root zone.

*Please note that Bayfidan has been discontinued.
