Access guides, bulletins, tools, and training materials for soybean production.
A gradual increase in production of organically grown soybean has occurred since the inception of organic labelling due to increased human consumption of soy products and increased demand for organic soybean meal to produce organic animal products. Reach out to get a customised production program.
Have you noticed bronze to purple leaves, premature leaf drop, or poor-quality seed in your soybean field? Your crop could be suffering from Cercospora Leaf Blight (CLB). What causes it? Cercospora Leaf Blight is caused by the fungus Cercospora kikuchii. The disease survives on infected crop residue and seed, spreading through wind and rain, especially during warm, humid weather. Lead to yield losses of 10–30% under moderate disease pressure, with losses exceeding 50% in severe epidemics when susceptible varieties and favourable weather coincide. Protect your crop by: • Planting certified, disease-free seed • Rotating crops • Managing crop residues • Growing tolerant varieties • Scouting fields regularly • Applying recommended fungicides when necessary Early detection and timely management are the best ways to protect your soybean yield.
The purpose of this soybean field guide is to provide soybean growers, agronomists, researchers, seed companies and others with a means to diagnose soybean abnormalities a means to diagnose soybean abnormalities as they are observed in thefield.
