Tar Spot corn fungal infection spreads across Missouri.

[Missourian]

Missouri corn yields are expected to decline as Tar Spot has spread from Illinois to Missouri.

Not unexpected...but another drain on farmers in time, energy and money to buy, mix and spread fungicide to combat Tar Spot...or take a gamble on a fungal infection that decimated 50% of the corn crop in South America where it originated.

A good case aginst crop homogenization. It is serious. Maybe not well understood by those with no background in agriculture. A blight can reduce food supply around the world. We need people in government leadership roles with the knowledge and back ground in the areas they govern. It is a serious issue.

It's gmo corn probably. Toxic.

All corn is GMO. This is a big deal if it spreads very far.

You hit the nail on the head

When every farmer plants the same variety of corn we are only one blight away from starvation
