Eastern Iowa farmer Dave Walton says he’s keeping a close eye on disease pressure this growing season.

“I’m hearing a little bit of talk about tar spot, and I’ve been out looking for it. It’s in some of the surrounding counties, but I haven’t found it here. That’s probably the primary concern right now.”

Walton says he manages gray leaf spot yearly.

He tells Brownfield he’s pleased with how his crops are looking.
