Soybean
rust is a serious disease causing crop losses
throughout the
world. It is caused by two fungal
species, Phakopsora pachyrhizi and
Phakopsora meibomiae. The USDA says yield losses have been reported
from 10-80% in locations that have had outbreaks.
 There are
a large number of legume
hosts that can harbor soybean rust.
Soybeans are the largest crop affected... some other common hosts are
kudzu, yellow sweet clover, vetch, medic, lupine, green and
kidney
bean, lima and butter bean, and cowpea or backeyed pea.
Soybean
rust forms tan or reddish brown lesions on leaves, consisting of small
pustules with masses of tan colored spores on the surface or reddish
brown necrotic areas surrounding the pustules.
The
most important element in managing soybean rust is staying ahead of the
disease with well-timed, well-chosen preventive* fungicide
applications. Soybean rust is so virulent that once the disease is
established - especially in the mid- and upper-canopy - it can be
extremely difficult to manage with a curative approach. (*Preventive is
defined as 0-<2% incidence of rust in lower canopy; 0% in mid or
upper canopy. A preventive application generally should be made at
R1/R2.)

Fungicide Application With An AmeriBest Mist Blower
A mist blower is the preferred applicator of
fungicides in soybeans and other legume hosts that harbor Soybean Rust.
AmeriBest Mist Sprayer's high and low volume mist sprayers
create smaller mist size particles in a 0 to 140' air stream that stays
low to the ground for the best control and uniform coverage; Over,
Under and Around Plant Foliage.
Directly
spray legume hosts and crops using 1/10th the
water and less fungicide. The smaller mist droplets cover more surface
area of the leaf.
Mist
Spraying
Versus Hydraulic or Dilute Spraying
Dilute or
hydraulic spraying patterns (above left) produce large spray droplets
which run off crops, wasting water and chemical. Mist spraying (above
right will give you better distribution of small spray droplets which
produce
better penetration and coverage while using less chemical, water and
time.
