Description:	Sugary disease, caused by claviceps africana, represents a major threat to hybrid seed production in Brazil. Since the disease was observed in 1995, a collaborative research program involving private and public sector has been developed for control of the disease. This paper reports results of recent trials developed in the EMBRAPA Maize and Sorghum Research Center Experiment Station, in the evaluation of fungicides and doses for the control of sugary disease in seed production fields.
