Nick Seiter - 2025 Insect Management in Soybeans

views comments

Nick Seiter discusses insect management in soybeans, focusing on the return on investment of different insecticide products. He highlights the results of a multi-year trial funded by the Illinois Soybean Association, which aims to evaluate the efficacy of insecticides in protecting soybean yields. Seiter emphasizes the importance of understanding which insect pests are most responsible for yield losses and verifying economic thresholds for insecticide applications. The 2024 results showed that insect pest populations were generally below economic thresholds, and insecticide applications did not significantly impact yields, underscoring the need for continued research to optimize pest management strategies.
