Late fall is a good time to sample for soybean cyst nematodes (SCN)! After harvest low-yielding field areas are fresh in your mind and hopefully things have slowed down a bit. The best way to know for sure if you have SCN in your field is by taking a soil sample. The Nebraska Soybean Board continues to support a program that covers the cost of the SCN test, normally $20 per sample. To get sample bags to submit for a free SCN analysis, contact your nearest Nebraska Extension office.

October may be the month of candy, costumes and trick-or-treating, but it is also the month of #pork. In Nebraska, pigs are a top consumer of #soybean meal, eating 15.9 million bushels of #soy a year.

October is #NationalPorkMonth in the U.S. Traditionally, this was the time of year when pigs were marketed.

This sealant stabilizes and preserves the asphalt and extends the overall life of the driving surface. The 88% bio-based material helps restore asphalt, effectively reduces moisture penetration that causes cracking from freeze/thaw cycles in cold temperatures, and is environmentally safe to use.
