Abstract

Fusarium head blight (FHB), commonly known as scab, is a disease affecting all classes of wheat and other small grains. We detect, and estimate the effect of, factors on the choice of number of technologies wheat farmers in North Dakota and Minnesota adopt for scab management. Farm characteristics and availability of technical information about best scab management practices are important variables. Availability of technical information and land ownership increase the odds producers concentrate scab management programs into fewer techniques. Increased wheat acreage on owned land has the opposite effect.
