Brief Project Summary:

Soybean acres continue to expand in Alabama. This increase in acreage has resulted in a corresponding increase in the need for all eight regional agronomy Extension agents to be able to help soybean producers and consultants make optimal insect management decisions. This funding will be used to conduct in-field training activities with the regional Extension agents to help them become more informed about insect management.
