Brief Project Summary:

To improve the management of aerial blight on soybean by using a predictive system for anticipating disease development, the research team will spatially monitor inoculum levels and movement and disease development in producers' fields as related to water movement, levee patterns, crop residue, and crop growth. The researchers will use this previous history of spatial and temporal distribution of Rhizoctonia solani to improve the application of fungicides in a timely and efficient manner.

Information And Results
Final Project Results

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.
