摘要

In the South, it's common practice for rice and cotton growers to use crop consultants to scout their fields for pests and diseases each week of the growing season. Soybean growers, however, have traditionally either walked their fields themselves orrelied on chemical and seed dealers to provide answers to their pesticide and fertilizer-related questions. That may be changing. The threat of Asian soybean rust infestation, combined with potentially yield-robbing pest pressure, apparently has convinced some soybean growers that it's worth the money to use hired advisers. Relatively few soybean growers are hiring crop consultants to scout their fields, but it may be strictly a matter of economics for some producers, says Steve Martin, an agriculturaleconomist at the Delta Research and Extension Center in Stoneville, MS.
