Research Strategy

As farmers prepare for the upcoming growing season, university researchers are preparing for their field trials. NDSU Extension Plant Pathologist Sam Markell will concentrate on three major areas. “We’re going to drill into sunflower rust quite a bit more and I think that will be really important. We’re going to look at quite a few root rots in the field and we will look at dry beans and how they respond to SCN with some of the seed treatments.”
