Growing Rhubarb

My 2 y/o rhubarb was growing well, then developed a coppery sheen on the leaves which go brown and papery, the stalks get soft, sag and go yellow. It is in raised area, watered regularly under the leaves, well manured and shaded from excessive summer heat. Any advice would be appreciated. Cathi.Dickinson
