Indigo Ag today announced the commercial launch of the company’s first bionematicide for the U.S. market. Produced as a flowable powder formulation, biotrinsic Z15 is labeled for use on both corn and soybeans, requires no special equipment or training to apply and is adaptable for commercial or on-farm application.
Corteva Agriscience, BASF and MS Technologies announced they have entered into a mutually beneficial trait licensing agreement to develop next-generation Enlist E3 soybeans with the nematode resistant soybean (NRS) trait for farmers in the United States and Canada.
Farmers may be planning to grow soybeans in 2022 in fields cropped to soybeans in 2021 because of high prices and limited availability of inputs for corn production. But doing this in 2022 in fields infested with the soybean cyst nematode (SCN) will be especially dicey.
Growing soybean varieties with a source of soybean cyst nematode (SCN) resistance other than PI 88788 can increase yields as a result of better nematode control, says Iowa State University. For improved resistance to SCN, check out this resource when selecting soybean varieties.
There are a lot of agronomic benefits for planting cover crops such as soil health, soil erosion control, weed reduction, animal feed and nutrient recycling. For soybean producers dealing with soybean cyst nematode (SCN) in their fields, selection of cover crops is important since some of these can be hosts for SCN, says South Dakota State University.
Soilborne pathogens and fungal diseases are likely concerns for corn and soybean no-tillers this season, but pathologists say pay particular attention to soybean cyst nematodes, sudden death syndrome, tar spot and target spot.
Soybean cyst nematode (SCN) and sudden death syndrome (SDS) are expected to plague U.S. no-till soybean producers again this year, especially if the local planting season is accompanied by cooler and wetter than average conditions.
The results of an Iowa State University field experiment conducted in 2019 with the soybean cyst nematode (SCN) showed up to a $200 per acre yield difference between different varieties.
Now that the 2019 corn and soybean harvest is in full swing, it is not too early to start thinking about and planning for the 2020 growing season as well. For soybean farmers in Iowa, a critically important fall activity that can pay large dividends is soil sampling to determine soybean cyst nematode (SCN) population densities in fields in which soybeans will be grown in 2020.
Has the recent extreme overabundance of moisture drowned soybean cyst nematodes? Unfortunately, writes the Iowa State University Extension, the answer is no.
Most Midwest producers are behind in getting corn and soybeans into the ground this year as a result of persistent rains and cool temperatures. The University of Illinois takes a look at what this might mean for some of the common field crop diseases.
