Potato Crops

Are Harmful Nematodes Impacting Your Yields?

We sat down with Dr. Marisol Quintanilla, Assistant Professor in the Department of Entomology at Michigan State University, to talk about nematodes. In this video, Dr. Quintanilla discusses various types of nematodes, the experiments she has been doing the last couple of years on how to reduce harmful nematodes in the soil, and finally walks us through what farmers should do about nematodes in their soil.
