It keeps the stems greener and healthier. Beans will be dry with green stems.

Use fungicide on every acre.Makes then cut harder, thresh harder,and you’ll burn more fuel but on our side by side tests it more than pays for itself. Just not so sure about the aggravation.

First season for the N-5 ???????     Probably needs new helical bars in the cage and get rid of the reverse bars on the left side of the rotor. Those two things will reduce HP requirements drastically.

Does row spacing affect the need for fungicide? I plant 30” rows, have not applied it, and seed man seems to think going narrow rows would not benefit me

Around here my supplier says good for 10 bu increase as a rule. It can vary but seems about right. Early planting improves chances. At a ball game last week and retired neighbors boy sent video of monitor as we were watching game. 10% /100-108 bu. April planting w/fungicide. Greene combine....was it calibrated right? Just reporting...

I do 30 inch rows as well.  And the seed man and AGRONOMISTS (jayWink) around here say that yes, 30 inch rows are less susceptible to fungi problems.  White mold is the common one in the conversations.  Stands to reason, more airflow around the plants for a longer part of the growing season.

We have been doing fungicide and Ascend growth regulator for several years here in Southern Indiana. Cost per acre this year was 46/acre custom applied and we figure routinely it has been 6 - 10  bushel increase so 12 -14$ beans it certainly is worth it. we have an older 9510 John Deere conventional and just pinch the cylinder down against the concave and it chugs along in green stemmed beans but it does drink the fuel!!

Helical bars are bolted inside of the cage and spirol the fodder thru the cage to the exit point. They are a wear item. When an auger is worn, it doesn't work very well. When helical bars are worn they don't work well in green/tough conditions. "Reverse" cylinder bars need to be removed and replaced with "forward" bars to improve the flow of fodder thru the cage. These are things I always did to increase the appetite of those P-1 processors, decrease rotor losses and cut fuel use.
