01-2020 Cook Insect Management In Soybeans Annual Report
Insecticide resistance can be a major issue for insect management, and new insecticides are not being brought to market regularly anymore. “Routine” studies to evaluate current insecticides, along with reports from growers and consultants provide the first indications of pending insecticide resistance issues. Current market conditions have reduced profit margins considerably. The most informed and economical insect management decision is always important, but may be even more important when profit margins are small. To keep information current, studies must be regularly conducted to evaluate management strategies and tools and to provide information on unexpected insect issues.
23-2020 MAFES Variety Trial Seed Quality Data at Harvest
Soybean variety trials were conducted across Mississippi in 2020 through the Mississippi State University, Mississippi Agricultural and Forestry Experiment Station (MAFES) Variety Testing Program and three locations (Brooksville and Raymond non-irrigated and Stoneville clay soil irrigated) were rated for quality by Midsouth Grain Inspection Services, an official USDA-designated grain inspection agency. Ratings represent damage from each location and labeled “Damaged Kernels Total” and expressed in percentage of that sample size with damage kernels. Plots were harvested as quickly as possible so these ratings in the tables do not express any extended weathering pattern. Tables will show planting date, harvest date and damage kernel totals.
