Welcome to the Fusarium Head Blight Risk Assessment Tool for 2016! If you
are new to this risk tool or haven’t used it in a while, please click and
read the “User Guide” on the left hand side of your screen. The first
paragraph has the main steps to get you started with the model.
Right now the wheat in the state is anywhere between Feekes 4 and 6. Much of
the wheat got a head start on growth due to our warm fall and early winter,
and warm conditions this spring have not slowed it down much. I’ll update
this commentary with more frequency as we approach heading in PA. If you’d
like to receive updates directly to your e-mail or via text, please sign up
