Iowa State University Hires Program Manager to Strengthen Statewide Pest Resistance Management Efforts
AMES, Iowa — A new staff member at Iowa State University will coordinate day-to-day activities of a statewide effort to help Iowa farmers address pest resistance in their fields.
Soybean Aphid Numbers on the Rise
Since 2000, soybean aphid has been the primary soybean insect pest in Iowa. Infestations are sporadic and unpredictable, but this insect has the ability to cause significant yield loss during periods of optimal reproduction. Several notable infestations have been reported, particularly in north-central Iowa, this week, and therefore scouting to determine population densities is strongly encouraged. Fields that have a fairly uniform infestation with low densities (e.g., 50% of plants infested with an average of 40 aphids per plant) should be closely monitored in August.
The Rise of Pest Resistance: Five Trends to Know
Army of Fatherless Clones: Soybean Aphid Decision Making - Part 1
On this episode of the I See Dead Plants Podcast, host Ed Zaworski speaks with Ashley Dean, an Education Extension Specialist at Iowa State University to break down the importance of integrated pest management or IPM, for determining the next steps when dealing with an insect infestation. Ashley shares insights from her article, published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd on behalf of Society of Chemical Industry, called “Developing a decision‐making framework for insect pest management: a case study using Aphis glycines (Hemiptera: Aphididae)”.
