Bean Binoculars Incident

Symptoms associated with drought were scouted in a soybean field at the R5 (beginning seed) growth stage. Many leaves are flipped over and ~75% of the site was exhibiting symptoms. 

Most fields in Ohio do not have irrigation. If conditions are dry, manage other inputs, such as foliar fungicide, wisely. With dry conditions, foliar diseases are less of a concern and soybeans are less likely to have a positive yield response to foliar fungicide application.
