Sentinel plot surveys are underway in the region. As expected, things are quiet within the region with regards to disease infections in soybean.

To the south in areas where Soybean Rust has overwintered on kudzu, the current sentinel plot and survey reports have not changed dramatically from the mid-May reports. Some of the earlier detections in Texas and Mexico are reported to no longer be found.

As always, if you are interested in checking the status of soybean rust for the current growing season, you can do so by visiting the web site for the USDA Soybean Rust Public Information . . . . .

For all things soybean rust related, the University of Minnesota’s web site provides reports and links to management information.
