Foliar fungicides are valuable soybean disease management tools. However, when applied in the absence of controllable, yield-limiting plant disease, they are typically not a profitable input.
Under certain conditions, applying a fungicide to corn may provide an economic return. A look at a few key criteria will help in determining whether to apply fungicides or wait things out.

Scout fields to see what’s there and pay careful attention to product labels when choosing a foliar fungicide for wheat, says Ohio State University Extension.
Increased yields from fungicide application depend on the level of disease, which depends on the environment, says South Dakota State University Extension.
While mild fall weather has led diseases to develop, South Dakota State Extension says there has been little research showing the effect of a fall foliar fungicide on winter wheat yield.
Corn is all over the board in terms of growth and development, ranging from V6 to R2; Late-planted fields are usually at greater risk for foliar disease development, and reports coming in indicate that gray leaf spot is already present on the lower leaves in some areas.
With the wet conditions that we've been experiencing and the possibility of wet conditions during soybean flowering, now is the time to consider if a fungicide application should be made.
From year to year, the most consistent results and the greatest benefits are seen when foliar fungicide applications are made at tassel or silking, Ohio State University says.
