12 Nitrogen Fertility & Cultivrs Most effective strtegy for incresing protein in whet ws choosing vrieties tht re low-yielding nd hve high protein rtings. There is no dvntge for the CRNs when considering only yield. However, the CRNs could dely N vilility until lter in the seson to increse % protein. Agri-ARM Updte - Jnury 11th,

13 Fungicides & Cultivrs Lef Disese Fungicide tretment ws most eneficil on cultivrs tht were more susceptile to lef spotting diseses. AC Brrie nd Infinity showed enefit from fungicide ppliction, wheres fungicide ppliction on the more disese resistnt vriety (5603HR) ws not required. These results indicte tht choosing disese resistnt vriety my reduce the need for fungicide ppliction. Fungicide on Flg Lef Agri-ARM Updte - Jnury 11th,
