Red River Farm Network- Perfect Conditions for Cercospora Leaf Spot

Article – July 2, 2024

According to Belchim USA President Tom Wood, conditions are ripe for disease pressure in sugarbeets. “What we hear about the Red River Valley is extraordinary amounts of rain and cool with other days hot and humid, it seems like this year has perfect conditions for Cercospora.” Many sugarbeet growers were able to get by with a couple applications for Cercospora leaf spot last year. Wood says growers are gearing up for five, six or even seven fungicide applications this season. “Fungicides have a level of resistance so it’s important that you rotate one fungicide and then in the next spray another fungicide,” said Wood. “Minerva can be used for the first spray and that’s where we recommend it and there’s a couple reasons for that. It’s a resistance management tool and we’re very competitively priced.”

Delta Farm Press- Rice stinkbug: Resistance, strategies, and net return

Article – June 21, 2024

When it comes to rice stinkbug, Midsouth rice farmers have few insecticide options and experience widespread failures with pyrethroid products like Lambda-Cy. Through university trials in Arkansas, research confirmed the quality and economic net return of all the available products, with two standing out above the rest. For the study, Nick Bateman, Extension entomologist at the University of Arkansas System Division of Agriculture, conducted trial work in 2021 and 2022. He shared the results at the 27th annual National Conservation Cotton and Rice Conference in early 2024. The big takeaway were the two products, Tenchu 20SG by Belchim USA and Endigo ZCX by Syngenta, that provided more effective control of rice stinkbug. While Tenchu is labeled for use in rice, Endigo is not.
