BECK’S V5 Fungicide Trials<br />
2014 PFR Partners<br />
Beck’s Hybrids conducted V5 fungicide research trials in 2014 as a part of the PFR<br />
Partners program. This program was designed to apply multiple fungicide products in<br />
side-by-side comparisons in an on-farm testing project with growers interested in evaluating<br />
fungicides.<br />
This report states the name of the Partners, the location of the farm, corn hybrid tested<br />
and the yield response of each specific fungicide treatment.<br />
All fungicide treatments are 15 gallons per acre or higher, ground-applied with either a<br />
Hagie STS, Miller Nitro or New Holland Guardian high-clearance sprayer. All applications<br />
were made at the V5 growth stage.<br />
The products used in this protocol included the following:<br />
1. 2 oz. Stratego ® YLD Trifloxystrobin + Prothioconazole Bayer<br />
2. 4 oz. Priaxor ® Pyraclostrobin + Fluxapyroxad BASF<br />
Bayer CropScience recommends using a 50% rate of Stratego YLD on V5 corn while<br />
BASF recommends 100% rate of Priaxor.<br />
