The label of Quilt Fungicide on cereals (barley, wheat, and triticale) has been amended. The maximum amount that can be applied during a growing season is now 28 fl oz, up from the previous amount of 20.5 fl oz. In situations that warrant early season disease suppression (favorable weather and high disease pressure), 7-14 fl oz can be applied at Feekes 4-5 stage (pseudostem erection) followed by 10.5-14 fl oz when the flag leaf is 50% fully emerged.
