Cercospora Leaf Blight in Kentucky
PPFS-AG-S-20: Cercospora Leaf Blight in Kentucky
Authored by: Don Hershman
Abstract
In most years, Cercospora leaf blight (CLB) is a minor disease problem in Kentucky soybeans. It is one of the more common "late-season" diseases, but usually comes in too little, too late to cause damage. However, in wet, late seasons like the one we experienced in 2009, significant yield and grain/seed quality losses can occur in fields that develop severe CLB before pod fill has completed.
