In soybean‐producing areas of Arkansas, root damage caused by southern root knot nematode and defoliation caused by frogeye leaf spot are two of the most economically important soybean diseases that occur, and it is not uncommon for both to be found in the same field. This study sought to determine how the two diseases affected each other and overall yield using spatial data collection and analysis.
