How much do you know about OSR diseases? Content
How well do you know your oilseed rape diseases? Can you tell your powdery mildew from your phoma leaf spot? Can you spot botrytis grey mould a mile off?
It’s hard keeping track of all the different diseases that could be affecting your crops. It’s important to spot these threats early, to determine the best control strategy, so you can tackle the problem before it spreads. But, it’s not always easy to identify the problem straight away – that’s why we’ve created this quiz to help you test your knowledge and stay clued up on the issues your crops may face.
The Bayer Agronomy Tool app makes it easy to identify diseases (as well as weeds and pests) whether you’re in the field or the farm office. You’ll find high-definition photos with guidelines on identification and symptoms, all optimised for your mobile device.
