Heat Can Increase Risk for Certain Diseases in Peanut

Heat Can Increase Risk for Certain Diseases in Peanut

By Pam Knox

According to my friends on the UGA Peanut Team in Extension, the recent run of high temperatures has caused peanut diseases to appear and expand in this year’s crops. I have seen a number of pictures of different symptoms appear in my social media feeds, with warnings of more to come. Morning Ag Clips posted a story this week discussing some of the diseases that peanut farmers are likely to see and what they can do to control them. Even with the little bit of rain that may occur this week, relatively high temperatures are likely to occur, although I think it will cool off a bit.
