Brief Project Summary:

This project is to improve understanding and significance of plant diseases by South Dakota soybean producers and to define effective, practical disease control methods that are appropriate for South Dakota soybean production.

The research-based information generated through field plot trials will be disseminated to South Dakota growers and to the allied industries by the Extension Plant Pathology program and the Extension Field Specialists-Plant Pathology. Disease-specific, integrated management and fungicide selection Extension bulletins will be developed and used as educational tools to help with soybean management issues. Putting the management recommendations into the hands of...

Information And Results
Final Project Results

As a result, no significant differences in late stand counts were observed between treated and non-treated plots. Grain yield, however, was significantly higher in treatments that had Cruiser only at the Volga location. For foliar fungicides, only Priaxor + Fastac and Stratego YLD + Mustang Maxx had significant yield from non-treated plots also at Volga location.

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
