During the previous two weeks the Crop Protection Lab (CPL) received 5 plant disease samples for diagnosis, as well as 16 elm tree samples that are being tested for Dutch Elm Disease (DED). The CPL is no longer accepting elm samples until June 2025.
The plant disease samples submitted to the lab have been occurring on wheat, durum, lentil, spruce and willow. Testing is being completed on some of these samples currently. In addition, the lab is diagnosing many samples as part of the provincial pest surveys. All sample submissions to the CPL should adhere to the sample submission guidelines.
The CPL is also beginning to receive weed seeds to be tested for herbicide resistance. If you have weeds that survived a herbicide application and you would like to have further insight into the problem, you can collect seeds and have them tested for herbicide resistance. A kind reminder the submission deadline is January 15, 2025. Please avoid desiccating the crop prior to weed seed collection as the desiccant can skew test results.
Fall Soil Testing: Beneficial Even in Dry Years: Soil testing is beneficial for nutrient management and may even reduce expenses.
