Mark your calendars for the Midwest Soybean Gall Midge Research Update

Join Extension entomologists and their graduate students from three Midwestern universities to get the latest updates on soybean gall midge (SGM). This free, live webinar scheduled for March 19 will feature new research results and emerging management insights from ongoing field and laboratory studies across the region. Several short presentations covering a range of topics will leave plenty of time for questions and discussion. 

Growers, crop consultants and scouts, educators, and industry representatives are encouraged to attend.

Get the latest research-based updates on biology, ecology, and management, including:

• Updated information on SGM distribution and regional monitoring efforts
• Impacts on soybean production and yield loss under field conditions
• Biology and ecology updates, including cold tolerance and overwintering survival
• New insights into adult biology, including emergence timing and behavior
• Results from commercial soybean variety testing under SGM pressure
• Updates on biological control efforts
• Evaluation of new and emerging cultural control strategies, along with other management tools

Certified Crop Advisors can earn pest management (PM) CEUs by attending the live event.
