A new Corn and Soybean Field Guide is now available from Iowa State University Extension and Outreach. This pocket-sized guide combines corn and soybean integrated pest management information in one publication for ease of use. It is an essential resource for corn and soybean farmers, agronomists, and crop scouts.
The guide provides tools for identifying insects, diseases, and disorders of corn and soybean in the Midwest. It also contains information on developmental stages, pesticide decisions, and other production-related topics. The guide is newly updated with text and images to reflect the latest research and recommendations.
The guide was first produced in 2016 by combining the separate corn field guide and soybean field guide into a single resource. The first edition has been sold out, but the publication is now back in stock in time for winter meetings. It serves as a great tool for crop scouts to use while in the field and covers aspects of agronomy, entomology, plant pathology, and more along with 300+ images, illustrations, and figures.
To order the Corn and Soybean Field Guide, visit the ISU Extension Store at https://store.extension.iastate.edu/Product/14743. Single copies are available, as well as bulk orders at a reduced price.
