Brief Project Summary:

This project’s objectives include evaluating soybean cultivars to low diseases pressure situations to determine their yield potential and value to Tennessee producers and evaluating the efficacy of various fungicides for the control of soybean diseases including strobilurin-resistant and -sensitive frogeye leaf spot, cercospora blight, septoria brown spot and anthracnose in high and low disease pressure situations. Work supports increasing yield and profitability for Tennessee producers.
