2-1-2025 Episode 53, The continued spread of SCN in Ohio and across the nation.

  • Summary

  • It is known as the invisible yield robber. Soybean Cyst Nematode (SCN) is a leading cause of lower yields in soybean fields across the country with no noticeable symptoms above ground on the plant. In a recent news release from the SCN Coalition, SCN has been identified in over 30 additional counties across the country. That is in addition to the counties that it had previously been detected in. That new number includes two new counties in Ohio.

    Dr. Horacio Lopez-Nicora is an OSU Extension Soybean Pathologist and Nematologist. Dr. Lopez-Nicora has been working aggressively to help farmers identify fields with SCN populations and develop strategies to manage their presence of the pest and lower those populations. Dusty visits with Horacio on this episode to discuss the recent survey results and management strategies that farmers can employ to deal wtih the spread of SCN.
