Soybean rust has been confirmed for the first time this season in the United States. This confirmation comes from a soybean field in Hidalgo County, Texas. Rust was confirmed earlier this year on soybeans in the neighboring Mexican state of Tamaulipas.
In 2010, soybean rust has been reported on kudzu in one county in Alabama, two counties in Georgia, four counties in Louisiana, and one county in Florida.
In 2009, soybean rust was found in 16 states and over 576 counties in the United States, and in three states and nine municipalities in Mexico.
