Soybean rust has been observed to be much more widespread throughout the MS soybean production area this year. Normally, soybean rust is a late-season disease that goes unnoticed and ends up being observed at growth stages when the disease does not likely reduce yield (R6.5+). Soybean rust has been observed for the last three weeks across MS in soybean fields that range from R5.5 to R7. In some specific parts of the state management options have already been suggested due to the rust pressure in adjacent fields.
While some acres have finished and combines have started moving across fields, other acres that were planted later are still progressing through late reproductive growth stages. With that said, a lot of our state’s acres have just reached or are
This is some old data from 2007 but it is still relevant today. How does time of day effect stink bug populations? When this small test was conducted we did not have redbanded stink bugs in our system but I
Bobby, Jason, and Ben sit down and talk about post-harvest considerations for weed control after corn and early bean harvest.
Bollworm moth catches for this week remained about average while tobacco budworm moth catches were very low.
Soils are the environmental regulators of rain: when it falls, soil properties determine if it goes into the soil (infiltration) or across the surface (runoff). In the runoff water there may be sediment and whatever is attached to it, nutrients
As we move closer to maturity, there are many decisions to be made on termination timing of various management practices. At this time of the season, we can use late season soybean growth stages as a guide to decide when
Tom and Trent sit down with Bobby and Jason to Discuss where we are at with Late season soybean diseases and how to manage them
Angus, Don, and Whitney sit down with Jason and Bobby to discuss how to manage Redbanded Stinkbugs at R6 and Beyond as well as how to approach late infestations of Kudzu Bug.
Average bollworm trap catches for the week were at or below average for this time of year, while tobacco budworm catches remained very low this week.
Average bollworm moths per trap for this week were similar to last week and a little low for this time of year. Tobacco budworm moth catches were 0 in all traps except for 1 trap in Noxubee County.
Eric Webster, LSU AgCenter Weed Scientist sits down with Bobby Golden and Jason Bond to discuss rice harvest in Louisiana and talk herbicides in row rice and the Provisia System.
Join the MSU Team for what you thought may never be possible – drainage tile in the Mississippi Delta and the benefits it can provide. Mississippi State is teaming up with Advanced Drainage Systems and Soil-Max on a quick, 2-part
Although most corn across the state is beyond the susceptible stage, southwestern corn borer traps were very high in some counties with multiple traps exceeding 100 moths per trap.
The Entomology Team discuss all aspects of Stink Bug Management.
The Entomology Team sits down with Bobby to discuss how to manage Bollworms larvae in late cotton
Larry Steckel from the University of Tennessee joins Bobby and Jason on the Call in line to discuss his recent reports of Pigweed Escapes after Auxin application, what this means to Mid-South Agriculture and how growers can move forward.
Bollworm moth catches in pheromone traps were down this week to levels about average for this time of year. Tobacco budworm moth catches were zero in nearly all traps, so all heliothine eggs should be assumed to be bollworm at
Southwestern corn borer trap counts increased again this week in several counties. Traps in Leflore, Carroll, and Tate counties exceeded the current threshold of 100 per trap. As a reminder, corn is considered safe from yield losses from southwestern corn
Bobby hands the podcast over to Whitney as she attempts to rein in the Entomology team on everything related to Soybean insects. Topics range from Stink bugs to Loopers and all insects in between, as well as optimal control strategies
Angus and Whitney sit down with Bobby and Jason to talk all things Tarnished Plant Bug including Alternate Hosts and Control Measures.
Bollworm moth trap catches were up this week compared to last week as expected. Moths are emerging from corn now and will be primarily laying their eggs in cotton and soybeans at this time, so be attentive in scouting these
