Pest management
The major insect pests and diseases of specialty
soybeans are generally the same as those of
conventional soybeans. Disease and insect
management relies heavily on employing sound
agronomic practices, such as crop rotation and,
when available, resistant varieties. Insecticides
and fungicides are infrequently applied to
soybeans. Weed control can be achieved by a
good crop rotation program and herbicides.
