As we mentioned in a previous newsletter article, there is a product newly labeled for spider mite control in soybean and sweet corn (Agri-Mek SC). We would like to test this product in Ohio soybeans, and are looking for a producer field for this trial. The soybean field must have an at-threshold spider mite population to treat, and the producer must be willing to leave some untreated check strips. The product will be free. If you would like to participate in this trial please contact Kelley Tilmon at tilmon.1@osu.edu or 330-202-3529
