While nematodes are tough on corn, these microscopic-sized pests are quite fragile and easily destroyed if not handled gently during the sampling process.

You can learn more about nematode pressures, identification, diagnostics, and ongoing Farm Journal Test Plots research at this summer's Corn College. One-day sessions are still open for registration.
