University of Wisconsin plant pathologist Dr. Damon Smith answers questions from agronomists during the Wisconsin Agribusiness Association’s 2019 Agribusiness Classic in Madison, WI.
A crop disease expert says timing is everything when it comes to spraying for white mold in soybeans.
Plant pathologist Dr. Damon Smith from the University of Wisconsin-Madison says, “Going between R-1 growth stage and the R-3 growth stage, the start of those pods, that really maximizes the control of those fungicides.”
Smith tells Brownfield controlling the ability of the spores to infect the plant is what matters.
