The haying itself is not likely to stop the cycle. A long cold winter doesn't necessarily help either (we have those here in Manitoba). Those of us who have a concern with Wheat Stripe Mosaic deal with the problem by rotation. A sure fire way to have a problem here in Manitoba is to follow winter wheat with either winter wheat or spring wheat. If you must, then either a burnoff or a tillage pass would be required. Up here if we grow winter wheat it has to be grown into a standing stubble in order to trap enough snow for winter survival, so that pretty well eliminates the tillage method. Those that grow winter wheat on winter wheat successfully here do so with the help of a light fall roundup burnoff. Although I have seen patches in fields where wheat stripe mosaic took all, I have yet to see a field (like 80 acres) where it caused significant damage. However for us, some of the same agronomics that apply for control of other plant disease also apply to wsm.
