USDA REPORTS SOYBEAN RUST IN TEXAS

Looks like we need to be on the lookout again this year

USDA reports Asian soybean rust has been found in beans at the Texas A&M experiment station in Weslaco, TX, near the Mexican border. The disease was found during harvest, but on late-planted, relatively immature beans. The field had been surveyed in December, 2005 and no rust was found at that time.
