Department of Ag has found the mycotoxin in North Central Kansas
The Kansas Department of Agriculture is reporting fumonisin toxicity in North Central Kansas, says theHigh Plains Journal.
Fumonisins are a mycotoxin produced by several fungus species in the Fusarium genus and are common on corn plants. Fumonisin is reported to occur on visibly healthy grains and are common in grain fields, but certain conditions can allow them to proliferate.
Conditions are favorable for fungal growth during drought and are accompanied by high temperatures during grain fill. Concentrations of fumonisins are not the same across one field.
