The Crop Protection Network provides non-biased, science-based information about relevant agronomic practices and concepts. Agriculture is full of people promoting their product or concept, usually tied to making a sale. Having a science-based resource to fact-check and learn about products and practices is extremely valuable. The tools, publications, and resources are invaluable to those wanting to stay up to date on all things agronomy!

Accurate and timely information on soybean disease impact has been incredibly valuable for the soybean farmers to understand both emerging issues and the impact of checkoff funds on the diseases that most impact profitability. The emphasis on getting actionable crop protection data and management strategies into farmer and advisor hands quickly can have an immediate positive impact on both in-season management decisions and future planning.

The importance of getting science-based information out to growers on current and relevant agronomic issues is important in helping everyone make the best decisions and recommendations for the farm. Knowing that experts from universities across the U.S. contribute their knowledge and expertise to the articles and publications on the website gives me the confidence I need to take that information and discuss the topic with others. Every time I visit the CPN website I know that I am getting to most up-to-date information.
