Abstract
Nematodes are tiny wormlike plant pests that in the United States cause an estimated 10% drop in crop values annually. As Integrated Pest Management and Integrated Crop Production methods have grown in popularity, so has nematode sampling. Learn how to conduct one, design the sampling patterns, identify the best sample sites and choose the best equipment to do your sampling in this classic 1997 CIS publication. As an added bonus, use the diagnostic lab check sheet included in the back to more easily record your findings.
