Monitoring late season broad-acre crops for leaf and stem diseases

Crops should be monitored for leaf diseases in order to undertake appropriate control measures when first detected, and to alter management strategies in subsequent crops that will minimise the impact of disease. An ability to identify the incidence and severity of disease is important if yield loss is to be minimised.

Varietal symptoms vary but leaf mottling and puckering is common
Flecks enlarge and form green to yellow streaks (barley)
Spots elongate and join together,leaves turn yellow and die back from tips
