- Intervention effect A single fungicide seed treatment was superior to the other options across most study conditions.
- Intervention effect Optimally treated seed enhanced profitability by an average of $43.71 per ha compared with untreated seed, at an input cost under $8.65 per ha.
- Intervention effect Using high rather than low quality treated seed increased producer returns by an average of $64.27 per ha.
- Intervention effect For cultivar Hutcheson (MG V), planting in May rather than April or June gave better yields on average.
- Intervention effect For cultivar Hutcheson (MG V), planting in May rather than April or June used less seed on average.
- Association As the planting season progressed, replanting plant population density thresholds decreased.
