Brief Project Summary:

Soybean Cyst Nematode (SCN) is one of the most important pests of soybeans in Michigan. Nemastrike, ILevo, and BIOst Nematicides are the emerging seed treatments for control of this pest but there is minimal performance data available on these treatments. Preliminary trials conducted by MSU Nematology in 2018 showed a positive impact of ILevo and BIOst treatments on soybean yields. However, it wasn’t possible to get Nemastrike treated seeds of the same variety, so this treatment was not able to be included. However, we did do strip trials with Nemastrike provided by Monsanto, unfortunately we are not allowed to share the data but the results look promising. Continued testing is required...

Final Project Results

The United Soybean Research Retention policy will display final reports with the project once completed but working files will be purged after three years. And financial information after seven years. All pertinent information is in the final report or if you want more information, please contact the project lead at your state soybean organization or principal investigator listed on the project.
