If you have a wheat field or plan to have one you would like to submit as a potential site for UMN Extension to survey and contribute to statewide MN pest maps, please use this form. 

Email Anthony Hanson (hans4022@umn.edu) if you have issues submitting with the form. Scouts and will be based in Morris, Moorhead, and Crookston, so sites should be approximately in the western half of the state.

Latitude and longitude coordinates can be easily found and copied by finding your field in Google Maps, right clicking, and selecting What's Here? Field locations will not be shared outside the U of M and NDSU IPM teams.

Fields that are relatively accessible from a roadside are preferred. Submissions will be selected to give the best geographic representations of study sites. We can provide results for your field, so please include your email so we can send timely updates on scouting results to you. Maps will be available at https://z.umn.edu/mn-ndsu-wheatipm and alerts will be posted on Minnesota Crop News.  We will also make an effort to email you the data if pest issues are found in your small grains fields. Scouting will begin sampling in late May or early June on a weekly basis.
