Integrated Management Studies |
Experiments with randomization and replication of any combination of two or more of the following factors: fungicide application program, genetic resistance, tillage practice, cropping sequence, and other cultural practices targeting Fusarium-infested residues. Please note: It is important that the IM-CP Standard protocols for the operational components of these projects be implemented for all funded projects within the core treatments (for at least one objective) to ensure consistency among the various IM-CP locations. Several significant modifications have been incorporated into the standard protocols for this funding cycle. |
