Kentucky News updated as of June 24, 2008

  • Hello Everyone

    Below are maps comparing the soybean rust distribution today and a year ago today. If you look carefully you will see that there is more rust in Florida so far this year, but the disease has not progressed in Louisiana or Texas as far as it had by this date last year. The other states are about the same. Based on discussion during our weekly SBR sentinel a teleconference today, much or TX, LA, and MS are extremely hot and dry; conditions that are not favorable for SBR development. Florida officials did find an extremely low level (<1% incidence and severity) of SBR on soybean in Gadsden County Florida late last week. This was the first report of SBR on soybean for 2008.

    In any event, the SBR risk in KY is very low.
