In 2004 and 2006, five oilseed rape crops were monitored to provide regular updates on disease severity and crop development. From the end of September, the assessments were carried out weekly until December, then monthly until the end of April 2006. A final assessment was carried out during pod filling.
AICC members will provide regular crop news from the regions throughout the season.
A national survey of winter oilseed rape diseases has been undertaken annually since 1987 to monitor changes in incidence and severity of disease. Approximately 100 crops are monitored for diseases at three times throughout the season. View national survey data
