QUIZ – This week in agronomy – August 6

While out scouting this week, you might come across a few scenarios like these. The detailed answers will provide some good agronomy tips.

1. What is this grasshopper doing?

2. What caused the stem damage within the red circle?

3. What caused this leaf lesion?

4. What is this insect?

5. You still want to scout clubroot-resistant hybrids for clubroot because they won't have resistance to all the clubroot pathotypes. How many clubroot pathotypes are known in Canada?
