POTATOES – CONTROL OF POTATO BLIGHT

Application rate
Apply 1.7 kg Penncozeb 80 WP in at least 200 litres of water per hectare. Maximum 8 applications.

Timing
1. Areas of severe blight infection:
Apply the first spray before the haulm meets across the rows or as soon as a blight warning is received, whichever occurs first. Repeat every 10 days until the haulm is burnt off. A 7-day spray interval may be used under exceptional circumstances where for instance, blight risk is already high and rain is forecast at the time the next spray is due.

2. Areas where blight is less common and less severe. Apply the first spray when a blight warning is issued. Further application should be made at 10-14 days intervals for as long as blight conditions persist, until the haulm is burnt off. Irrigated crops fall into this category. DO NOT lift potatoes for 10 days after burning off. IN ALL CASES EFFICIENT SPRAYING TO GIVE COMPLETE COVERAGE OF FOLIAGE IS ESSENTIAL.
