Brief Project Summary:

This project will focus on field research designed to evaluate different practices for management of important soybean diseases across Kentucky. The primary diseases and pathogens focused on in this proposal are frogeye leaf spot, southern stem canker, target spot, Phytophthora root rot, and soybean cyst nematode. Treatments evaluated will include foliar fungicides applied at different timings, nematicide seed treatments, and different soybean varieties. The overall objective is to gain a better understanding on how to best manage these diseases and pathogens to improve soybean production in Kentucky and the region. The results of this research will help in developing improved management...
