Field Crops Plant Pathology

Welcome to the Field Crops Plant Pathology web site!  In this site we have combined  the former UW Soybean Plant Health website and my old Field Crops Plant Pathology website into one comprehensive site.

Our goal with this website  is to provide you with the latest research-based information on diseases and pests of Wisconsin’s field crops, as well as provide easy access to all the related UW crop management web sites that you often visit.

At this site you will find disease diagnostic materials for the main disease problems on soybean, corn, wheat and alfalfa, as well as the latest IPM recommendations for these crops, pesticide trial information, links to variety trial information, and much more.

While you are here, you can also read the latest report from the field on the Soy Report blog, and check the latest news in the Wisconsin Crop Manager.

Please visit often! We also welcome your feedback regarding this site! Please contact me at any time.
