    Elderberry insect and disease management
    (University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2023) Warmund, Michele
    This guide is the first known spray schedule to be developed for insect and disease control for field-grown elderberry in Missouri. Pesticide products labeled for greenhouse or high-tunnel-grown plants differ from those labeled for field-grown plants. Thus, product labels listed to control pests in this guide must be checked to determine if they may be applied legally when applied to elderberry grown under protected culture. Efficacy ratings for products are not listed in this guide as not all products have been tested at the University of Missouri. Only use pesticides after the pest is accurately identified. Scouting or trapping for pests will determine when a pesticide application is needed to prevent yield or plant loss.

    Identification and management of turfgrass diseases
    (University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2022) Tian, Peng; Chhetri, Manoj; Corwin, Barb; Tisserat, Ned; Fresenburg, Brad
    "This publication is designed to be a useful reference for diagnosticians, turfgrass managers, industry representatives and others who want to learn how to diagnose and manage common turfgrass diseases caused by plant pathogenic fungi. Expert help in turfgrass disease diagnosis can be obtained from Plant Diagnostic Clinics at land grant universities or from the private diagnostic labs specializing in turfgrass disease diagnostics."--Page 3.

    Enlist label compliance: how to determine hydrologic soil groups
    (University of Missouri--Columbia. Extension Division, 2022) Polly, Sam
    "For compliance with the Enlist labels registered in February 2022, producers must know the Hydrologic Soil Group (HSG) for the soil series on which they are applying the herbicide. HSGs are used to estimate runoff potential of a soil, and now they will be used to determine which mitigation measures a producer needs to implement before applying these products. This tutorial is intended to simplify your HSG determination."--Page 1.

    Best management practices for nitrogen fertilizer in Missouri
    (University of Missouri Extension, 2018) Scharf, Peter; Lory, John
    Missouri crop producers use a wide range of practices to supply nitrogen to their crops. The timing, rate and method of application, as well as the source of nitrogen and the use of additives, vary widely across the state and often between neighbors. Under certain weather conditions, nitrogen can be lost from the soil between application and crop uptake. This publication is intended to describe crop production practices that have the greatest potential for success in dealing with the complexities of managing nitrogen fertilizer. Successful nitrogen management delivers enough nitrogen to the crop to optimize yield and profitability while minimizing losses to water and air. With nitrogen, economic success and environmental success overlap almost completely. Everyone wants the nitrogen to end up in the crop. Thus, the best management practices (BMPs) presented here are identified as sound practices from economic, production and environmental viewpoints.
