Crop Diagnostic School At Scott

This year's Crop Diagnostic School is being held at the Scott Research Farm.
 
The event is geared to agronomists, producers, industry and retail reps to help improve their crop scouting skills and agronomic knowledge.
 
This year’s event focuses in on Herbicide Residue Symptomology, Fungicide Management, Insect Identification, Clubroot Management, and Intercropping.
 
The Herbicide Residue station talks about how some herbicides can remain in the soil for extended periods of time; which means they also have the potential to injure sensitive crops that are seeded in the following seasons. 
 
The Fungicide Management station looks at fungicide timing and disease cycles. 
 
The insect identification station focuses on insects of concern for 2019 as well as new pests. 
 
Participants will also learn more about clubroot prevention and management.
