This guide is intended to provide current effective management options for insect and other arthropod pests and for plant pathogens affecting all major field crops grown in North Dakota, South Dakota, Minnesota, Nebraska, Iowa and Kansas. Chemical and non-chemical control practices, when available, are described in detail for individual pests and pathogens. These practices include cultural and biological control options, and host plant resistance. By including alternatives to pesticides, we hope to create a ready reference of management strategies growers will consider when faced with a pest problem.

Weather plays an important role in plant disease development and spread. When making plant disease management decisions, consider the current weather conditions and in the forecast to inform you the likely conditions that favor disease development. Zoom in to your local area to get a better look at the conditions in your area.
