A variety of diseases are becoming evident in crops across the Midwest as farmers scout their fields.
Corn in Indiana is showing signs of grey leaf spot with lesions spotted on the ear leaf of plants.
Purdue Extension Specialists encourage growers that have treated with fungicides to continue scouting as applications are only effective for two to three weeks.
Tar spot is the bigger problem though, with cases also confirmed in Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, and Kansas. Southern rust is confirmed in all those states as well.
Submitting samples for testing to your Extension is key.
