Red leaf disease unlikely to curb 1983 Wisconsin oat crop
UW Madison plant pathologist Dr. Deane C. Arny says red leaf will not majorly affect 1983 oats after last year’s 20 percent yield drop. The virus spread by aphids also hits winter wheat and barley, with risk lowest when stands are thick and plantings early. Ogle remains the only resistant variety, though it carries rust and smut susceptibilities. Oats planted near buckthorn avoided. Wisconsin planted nearly one million acres in 1982 yielding about 48 million bushels.
