Color coding indicates the first year infestation was documented in the county, and is not a reflection of the intensity of infestation or injury from SGM. Counties with white stripes in NE and MN are areas where SGM was only on sweet clover. 2025: 5 counties in Iowa. 3 counties in Minnesota. Dashed lines indicate that larvae have only been found on sweet clover. https://soybeangallmidge.org/contacts daily 0.75 2026-02-23 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5da2457001106247e5fb9ff2/1599393933550-OOHAC7JYWHLQB4J5EJS3/McMechan%2BPhoto.jpg Contacts - Justin McMechan - Crop Protection and Cropping Systems Specialist 105B Entomology Hall, Lincoln, NE 68583-0816 402-472-2312 Email: justin.mcmechan@unl.edu Twitter: @justinmcmechan https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5da2457001106247e5fb9ff2/1599393849383-YSKRTOLUTI2A45QVFLE3/Erin+Hodgson.jpg Contacts - Erin Hodgson - Extension Entomologist 2005 ATRB, 2213 Pammel Dr., Ames IA 50011 Email: ewh@iastate.edu | Phone: 515-294-2847 Twitter: @erinwhodgson https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5da2457001106247e5fb9ff2/1599395273322-Z63WOETRFXI3GYODJ8W4/Robert+Koch.jpg Contacts - Robert Koch - Extension Entomologist 530B Hodson Hall, 1980 Folwell Ave., St. Paul, MN 55108 Email: koch0125@umn.edu https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5da2457001106247e5fb9ff2/1599417263877-91JFX3IUNWPD00U0TEOK/Adam%2BVarenhorst.jpg Contacts - Adam Varenhorst - Extension Field Crop Entomologist 308 Berg Agricultural Hall, Brookings, SD Email: Adam.Varenhorst@sdstate.edu | Phone: 605-688-6854 Twitter: @SDSUExt_Insects https://soybeangallmidge.org/sign-up-for-network-updates daily 0.75 2023-02-20 https://soybeangallmidge.org/notifications daily 0.75 2026-02-04 https://soybeangallmidge.org/soybean-gall-midge-series-videos daily 0.75 2024-04-29
