Corn tar spot: Distribution, development and management
Moderator: Nathan Drewitz, Extension educator – crops
Tar spot issues in corn were problematic last year throughout portions of Minnesota. Concerns and questions still remain on how best to deal with tar spot. Join Drs. Dean Malvick, Extension plant pathologist, and Darcy Telenko, Extension field crop pathologist from Purdue University, as we discuss on tar spot distribution and management, including fungicide timing, number of applications, and potential yield benefits.
