Nematode Management
Soils provide nutrients to feed soybeans, but they can also harbor nematodes that feed on those soybeans. Soybean cyst nematodes, root-knot nematodes and other plant-parasitic species infect roots and steal yield. Ongoing Soy Checkoff research has been exploring and improving management solutions, including genetics, nematicides and management practices. Dig into the resulting research, tools and resources that help protect soybean yield against nematode pressure.
Nematode species, including soybean cyst nematode, infest fields and reduce soybean yields. Farmers, researchers and other members of the soybean industry explain management practices and research to address this challenge.
