The long term average maturity for Carberry is 108 days and rated as Late (L). Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) infection is highly influenced by the environment and heading date. Under high levels of FHB all varieties will sustain damage. Moder- ately Resistant (MR) and Resistant (R) ratings for FHB do not equate to immunity. Varieties rated Intermediate (I) to Susceptible (S) for loose smut or bunt should be treated with a systemic seed treatment to reduce the potential for infection.
