Problem diagnosis is an important tool that cooperative extension agents use in advising producers to select appropriate corrective management approaches. This project supports efforts by cooperative extension agents to diagnose specific crop nutritional or disease problems in soybean. It allows for a set number of samples to be submitted by cooperative extension agents for analysis at the NCDA&CS Agronomic Division plant tissue lab, and at the NCSU Plant Disease & Insect Clinic. This is not intended to cover all analytical needs, but for program support to allow agents to diagnose specific problems important to their region of the state.
