Abstract

SUMMARY When benomyl, drazoxolon, thiabendazole or zineb were applied as soil drenches to established grassland drazoxolon reduced the incidence of rhizoplane fungi. Benomyl and thiabendazole significantly increased yield at one harvest but only benomyl had a significant effect on total yield. When benomyl was applied at monthly intervals from March to July significant increases in total yield were obtained with the June applications which also significantly increased yield at the first harvest in the following year. Repeated applications from March to July also had a significant residual effect on total yield. Yield increases were not significantly affected by increasing the benomyl level from 2.5 to 5.0 g/m 2 .
