Any suggestions on topics? I have already had to email Aaron Hager, Connor Sible, and Martin Chilvers to help provide research answer some of the submitted questions.

This should be a good one

Crop loss calculator updated with latest data at loss.cropprotectionnetwork.org In 2024, farmers in the U.S. and Canada experienced estimated losses of: ✅$4.2 billion from corn disease ✅$2.6 billion from soybean disease ✅$2.7 billion from corn insect pests ✅$1.9 billion from wheat

Many pathogens cause corn seed decay and seedling blight. The first symptom may be an area of the field with poor or no stand. Decayed seeds are very soft and may be covered with fuzzy fungal growth; seeds can be difficult to find if badly rotted. Postemergence damping off
