I agree with Jon and David Doud. A dry year with no crop will knock down the 
initial inoculum this coming year, decreasing brown rot pressure at the start 
of the season relative to most years. But it doesn’t take long for the brown 
rot fungus to build up again, and with a few old twig cankers active in a block 
during a relatively wet bloom period, I’d expect plenty of infections without 
fungicide sprays. It should be some easier to control BR this year, but I’d 
approach it as you would any season.

I think it's like apple scab -- not a bad year last year, but I am betting
most are not going to slack off too much on fungicide sprays if it's wet.
Ditto for brown rot if there are peaches and wet weather...

Art:
You had a much larger crop than we did……. 0 peaches & 0 nectarines.
We did a minimal spray program last year, but are planning to be ready for 
anything this year.  Bruce did the fall copper spray & we are planning on the 
spring copper spray, and then be as preventative as we can be for brown rot.  
Let’s hope we get a crop this year.

Does anyone have any insights to offer regarding brown rot following a dry, 
crop failure year.  The five peaches we did produce won the blue ribbon at the 
local fair (only entry).

agree with Maurice - but if you have bloom, there will be plenty of inoculum 
around to eat up the crop -

I'll go out on a limb Art and suggest if you don't see any flowers this
spring you need not be concerned about brown rot!
Look at all the savings!
