Barley

New Zealand grows some of the highest barley yields in the world. We are fortunate to enjoy the ideal climatic conditions, to have available water for irrigation and to be home to some of the best arable farmers in the world to make this possible. As yield is the primary driver of profitability for barley crops this makes it a very economically attractive crop to grow.

To ensure a barley crop realises its full potential, care is needed right from planting in order to control a range of weed, disease and insect pests and Bayer Crop Science provides a range of very effective products to do this. These products include Raxil Star seed treatment, herbicides such as Firebird and Hussar and fungicides such as CALEY iblon, VIMOY iblon, Aviator Xpro, Delaro, Proline and Prosaro.

Raxil Star contains three very active fungicides: Tebuconazole, prothioconazole and fluopyram. This combination delivers very broad spectrum control. Not just the smuts and bunts that Raxil 25FS controlled so well but also Fusarium species, Monographella nivalis (aka Microdochium nivalis) and for the first time seed borne net blotch.

Delaro

Delaro - the broad spectrum, cost effective fungicide for cereals and ryegrass seed crops.
