These Apps compile information from several production topics such as soil fertility, weeds, insects, diseases, crop management, calculators, and more. The Corn and Soybean Field Guide (Purdue University) is a very useful App. The fplants App portrays diverse forage species and provides a guide to forage ID. The HortPlants (University of Arkansas) App provides an extensive photographic catalogue covering many plants of the Mid-South, such as trees, vines, ground covers, shrubs, and ornamental grasses, among others. A new App from Oklahoma State University (FieldGuide, Dr. Arnall) is worth downloading, with information on nutrient removal, deficiency ID, nutrient demand, and fertilizers.
