Tar Spot Tracker 8-12-2024

BY Dairyland Seed Agronomy Team

Questions regarding tar spot and where we see infection are common throughout the growing season. To better alert folks in areas impacted by tar spot, the Agronomy Team is including a map in the weekly agronomy newsletters showing where tar spot has been confirmed through lab analysis as well as where we have identified suspected tar spot infections.

  • Counties highlighted in red are areas where tar spot has been confirmed through tissue sample analysis.
  • Counties highlighted in orange are where Dairyland Seed agronomist have identified tar spot and are waiting for lab analysis to confirm infection. 

We have many resources on tar spot in past Agronomy Updates. If you have questions about tar spot, please contact your Dairyland Seed Dealer, District Sales Manager or Regional Agronomist.
