Soil, crop residue and even wind gusts harbor pathogens that cause soybean diseases under conducive weather conditions. Scouting and accurate identification help farmers choose effective management strategies, which include cultural practices, genetics, fungicides and more. These tools, resources and research results from the soy checkoff help farmers fight diseases and protect soybean yield and quality.
