In a study conducted by NDSU Research Plant Pathologist Michael Wunsch, white mold was directly impacted by row spacing. White mold severity was minimized in 30-inch rows with pinto beans. With kidney beans, the study found that at all levels of white mold pressure, yields were maximized at 15-inch rows.
