The entries contained in the MSU soybean OVT were screened for their sensitivity to the root-knot nematode during 2014 (and again in 2015 – data forthcoming). Contained within this blog post are the root galling responses of 142 entries as well as the yield from the RKN infested location.
Preliminary results indicate that Palmer amaranth resistant to PPO herbicides is likely in Mississippi
The 2016 Insect Control Guide for Agronomic Crops is now available online. Hard copies will be available in January. Notable changes this year include the removal of pyrethroid insecticides for bollworm control in all crops due to resistance and poor
The results of the 2015 MSU-ES Soybean Variety Demonstration Program have been updated to include disease ratings for Cercospora blight, frogeye leaf spot, Septoria brown spot, and Target spot. These evaluations were collected at many locations in 2015 by Dr.
Variety selection is one of the most critical management decisions associated with soybean production. Factors such as soil type, planting date, irrigation capabilities, row spacing, harvest capacity, and others may influence the decision of selecting an appropriate variety for profitable
The 60th Annual Tri-State Soybean Forum will be held at Mississippi State University’s Delta Research and Extension Center on January 8, 2016. Registration will begin at 8 a.m. followed by the program at 8:30. Presentations will include pertinent information for
A Maturity Group IV and V variety trial was conducted in Verona, MS at the NMREC during the 2015 season. Yield and disease data are included in the attached report for all entries contained in the trial (RoundUp, Conventional and LibertyLink).
A Maturity Group III variety trial was conducted in Verona, MS at the NMREC during the 2015 season. Yield and disease data are included in the attached report.
The 2015 Row Crop Short Course will be held at the Cotton Mill Conference Center near the campus of Mississippi State University on November 30, December 1, and December 2 2015. Please note that this is a new venue as
Field evaluations of the Maturity Group IV entries in the MSU OVT were conducted at each of the locations where trials were planted (Brooksville, Clarksdale (n=2), Falkner, Longwood, Raymond, and Stoneville (n=3)). Entries were observed for their reaction to the diseases
The MSU OVT soybean locations were rated for disease during the 2015 season. Multiple diseases were rated at multiple locations. In the past, Cerospora leaf blight and frogeye leaf spot have been the two main diseases rated. In 2015, Septoria brown spot as well as target spot were included as well as a green stem rating. Phytotoxicity, following an accidental fungicide application, was rated in the Maturity Group IV early and late entries at one location.
The cultivars contained in the Mississippi State University Official Variety Trial (OVT), as well as a few added cultivars, were field-evaluated for their susceptibility/resistance to stem canker. Trials were conducted in Stoneville with toothpick-inoculated plants during the 2015 season. Tables contain the average ratings (on a 0-9 scale) as well as an assessment of resistance to stem canker (R, MR, MS, S) based on the ratings conducted.
The On-Farm Soybean Variety Demonstration Program is conducted using a set of varieties with proven performance. These varieties are grown in a production setting on various soil types and management systems around the state. Demonstration sets for both maturity group
The soybean variety trial ratings from the North Mississippi Research and Extension Center (NMREC) are included (MG III, IV, and V). The yield publication from NMREC will be posted at a later date. As in the past, plots were rated for Cercospora leaf blight (CLB) and frogeye leaf spot (FLS). However, this year, Septoria brown spot (Septoria) and target spot were also rated when the diseases were present. Green stem ratings were conducted for the Maturity Group IV early and late varieties.

The 2015 Row Crop Short Course will be held at the Cotton Mill Conference Center near the campus of Mississippi State University on November 30, December 1, and December 2 2015. Please note that this is a new venue as
Late-season soybean rust observations occur on almost an annual basis. Even though the majority of the soybean crop has escaped yield loss as a result of soybean rust again for the 2015 season, determining the extent of the disease in MS as well as potential locations where the fungus could overwinter continue to be an important part of the monitoring/scouting program. At present (9/22), soybean rust has been detected in 41 counties.

A field training regarding late-season soybean diseases will be held in Monroe County, MS on Tuesday, September 15 beginning at 5:30 pm and ending with a meal at a local restaurant. The diseases discussed will likely include: charcoal root rot,
Soybean diseases continue to be observed throughout the MS soybean production area. The number of counties (13, as of 9/4/2015) exhibiting soybean rust has increased over the past several days. However, low levels of infection have been observed at most locations. Frogeye leaf spot, Cercospora blight, target spot, and stem canker also continue to be observed.
Several calls have come in over the last week regarding soybean harvest aid options for various scenarios. In some cases, fields have been observed with varying degrees of maturity. In these situations, the majority of the pods observed across the
An agronomic crops field day will be held at Stovall farms, west and north of Clarksdale on Oakhurst Stovall Road. The field day will be held at Mr. Pete Hunter’s farm shop beginning at 10 am. MSU Extension Specialists will be present to discuss topics in corn, cotton, grain sorghum, peanut, rice and soybean.
Soybean disease continues to be observed throughout the MS soybean production system. Frogeye leaf spot, root-knot nematode, and a first report of soybean rust occurred over the past 7 days. In addition, widespread fungicide phytotoxicity has been observed in numerous fields due to the hot and humid conditions.
