Foliar symptoms of Cercospora leaf blight typically appear late in the season on soybean. Affected leaves become leathery & purple with bronze highlights. It can lead to reduced seed quality and yield loss. Warm wet weather favors disease development Crop Protection Network #Soybean #Fungi

NEMATODE MONDAY: Root-knot nematode symptoms (galls/knots) on roots of tomato plants. The amount of galling can vary with population density, Meloidogyne species involved and the host. Large numbers of nematodes penetrating roots in close proximity can result in larger galls

The eureka moments in agriculture research happens in the fields. We visited the KALRO soybean fields at Njoro, Kenya with the 2Blades president Diana. We took time to discuss on various strategies being deployed to manage #soybeanrust in Africa

Today the IITA , KALRO and FAO in Kenya are hosting a Stakeholder Engagement Workshop at Mabanga Agricultural Training Centre that marks the kickoff of a pilot project in Bungoma County aimed at addressing the growing threat of soybean rust. NemAfrica Harun murithi

NemAfrica is represented by Dr. Harun M. Murithi & Janet Odera of Soybean Pathology Research in Africa(SoPRA) at the Soybean Rust Stakeholder Workshop in Bungoma. Hosted by IITA , KALRO & Food and Agriculture Organization, it unites key actors to tackle soybean rust in Kenya’s top-growing zones. #SoybeanRust #AgricultureKE

The best southern rust management advice I can ever give you is to implore you to NOT spray corn at dent with a fungicide. We (unbiased entities) do not see a positive ROI with a fungicide made that late regardless of product Erick Larson #mscrops
