Planting of cash crop into actively growing green cover crop is known as planting green. The critical period of cereal rye termination is important to providing weed suppression, and not reducing soybean yield.

It's true. Tar spot is developing in several states & has now been confirmed in Richardson County Nebraska by team member Talon Mues & is probably also n other locations. Send samples to UNLPlant&Pest Clinic for help identifying tar spot (free) & other diseases Nebraska CropWatch

Sequentially applied residual #herbicides labeled for #soybeans can effectively control #PalmerAmaranth over time. Make sure to apply them before Palmer amaranth emergence to provide overlapping residual activity. Amit Jhala Nebraska Agronomy and Horticulture Nebraska Extension Nebraska CropWatch #NebExt
