Bermudagrass is a popular choice for hay production throughout the southeast, especially Florida. There are several factors that can impact forage quality and yield, including various diseases. Leaf spot or leaf blight (Bipolaris cynodontis) is one of the most common foliar diseases found in bermudagrass. This disease is caused by the fungus Helminthosporium which causes a decrease in forage nutritive value, yield, and overall palatability.
