Fusarium Head Blight Risk Forecast

Prepared by: Manitoba Agriculture, Food and Rural Initiatives, Crops Knowledge Centre, Carman

2009 August 7 - 12

The map shows the current risk for the development of  fusarium head blight based on the previous 7 days of temperature and moisture. When evaluating risk, it is very important to monitor the stage of the crop. Infection can occur if the crop is at or near the flowering stage. It is also important to keep in mind that conditions may change rapidly.
