Control of Sclerotinia sclerotiorum on Sunflowers

A trial in Dikopshof in Germany in 2003 showed a high efficacy of Contans^®WG against Sclerotinia sclerotiorum. In this trial Contans^®WG was applied with a rate of 4 and 6kg/ha. The best results (yield increase 14%) reached Contans^®WG with a rate of 6kg/ha. 38% of the untreated plants were infected with Sclerotinia sclerotiorum.
