Importance of Scouting Corn & Soybeans for Bugs and Disease

1.Early Detection = Early Control

• Identifying pests or diseases before they reach damaging levels can be crucial to your crop, being able to detect an issue before it causes major yield loss is critical
• If you know you have a certain issue in any given field you should plan ahead, weather that’s planning on one or two shots of fungicide/insecticide, or just picking a variety that will tolerate whatever pest you are dealing with

2.When & What to be scouting

• The best time to scout is early and often, disease and bugs can move in within days so checking your crop once a week isn’t the worst idea
• The best way to manage your crop scouting is to create a plan
  • Have your fields laid out and pick the fields that you have had issues with in the past and scout them more often than fields that you haven’t had issues with
• There is typically a rough timeline on when disease and bugs start showing up, it varies on the year, what the weather conditions have been, and what stage the crops at

3.What to look for with this year’s wet conditions

• Having a cool-wet spring/early summer is never a great way to start a crop year since most diseases thrive in these kinds of conditions
• Here are some of the diseases you should be looking for this summer when crop scouting
  • Corn – Common rust, Northern corn leaf blight, Tar Spot
  • Soybeans-Phytophthora root & Stem rot, Rhizoctonia, white mold, Frog eye leaf spot
