The Reverse Field Day in Jefferson County, FL, organized by @kumar_rowcrops, was a success! Researchers toured Mr. Kirk Brock, Stephen Fulford, & Ernest Fulford’s farms, had insightful discussions on their practices, and gained valuable insights into local farming challenges.

Peanuts nearly 90 days old; temperature near 90F, lower canopy still very wet at 1:00 PM. Perfect conditions for leaf spot, Rhizoctonia limb rot, and southern blight/white mold. Scout your fields and stay on a good fungicide program. Tift Co, Georgia. UGA Extension.

80-day-old peanuts and active white mold in SE GA. Grower needs to shut this down. Recipe: excellent fungicide + effective rate + good spray volume + timely rain or irrigation to move fungicide through canopy. I’m not trying to spend your money. I am trying to save your crop.
