Mangel Applied Soybean Pathology

Soybean Red Crown Rot has been identified in a county within 75 miles of Nebraska's border. With this recent identification, it looks like this rapidly spreading soybean disease will reach Nebraska earlier than expected. In fact, it may already be here. Watch here for an update, see resources, and find out how to identify if you think you might have it in your field. #farming #soybean #redcrownrot #agriculture #appliedresearch #disease https://lnkd.in/d4BdbMt4

We're trying to resurrect an old ALMACO plot combine at the Applied Soybean Pathology Lab, to get accurate research data. Watch the rescue mission and see how we do small plot research: https://lnkd.in/dsWjnpew #PlotCombine #NebraskaAg #ResearchFarm #farmingequipment

As plants mature, they invest less in leaf and stem maintenance, which opens the door for minor diseases and saprophytes to pile in. These late arrivals often overlap or mask the initial disease, making late season diagnosis a real challenge. See how the UNL Plant and Pest Diagnostics Clinic tackles these issues to make a successful diagnosis. https://lnkd.in/gqsNrWjW

Soybeans show some interesting symptoms leading into harvest. See this week's video for a breakdown of diagnostic symptoms you might come across while walking fields. Video: https://lnkd.in/gH8uBkJm

Sudden death syndrome is widespread in large parts of Nebraska. See what it looks like in the field and hear what you can do about it. This yield loss is not necessary with proper planning that starts today https://lnkd.in/ddhYihmF

Southern Soybeans are challenged by southern diseases. While we don't see some of these in Nebraska, we one day might. Last week I took a tour of TN and delta MS soybean fields to see these diseases first hand. Watch here: https://lnkd.in/gmSbQU_g to see. #soybeans #plantdisease #Nebraska #cropdisease

Had a chance to tour Mississippi delta and Tennessee soybeans this week. Saw new diseases and learned about their production system. We are lucky not to have Taproot decline, Southern blight, root knot nem, & target spot in Nebraska. Video coming soon https://lnkd.in/gHQd3QVj 

As an Extension Plant Pathologist with the Applied Soybean Pathology Lab, I'm tracking the increasing prevalence of Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) in Nebraska. This week, we've documented its appearance in our Soybean TAPS Plots. In our new video, we provide a timely field report on SDS symptoms and progression. This is a critical resource for growers and agronomists to help accurately identify the disease and assess its potential impact on soybean yield. https://lnkd.in/gmnvkpKr #Agronomy #PlantPathology #Soybeans #SDS #Nebraska #FieldReport
