Drought’s biggest impact on #corn yield loss potential depends on the crop stage at the time of #drought and how long the drought persists. Discover how corn responds to drought to help set your yield expectations: ow.ly/8GXX50KyRH6

Congratulations to our Seeds team in Brazil on their successful launch of the Golden Harvest brand, which will bring increased seed innovation to the 5+ million farmers in Brazil.
This addition reinforces our commitment and ambition to be the best seeds company in Latin America.
Kansas @GldnHarvest #agronomyinaction seed treatment trials in Kansas. Can you pick out the fungicide only plots vs Cruisermaxx APX plots. BLB knocked fungicide only plots back hard
Looking to see if some @GldnHarvest hybrids respond more to planter applied vs V5 Y-drop nitrogen here at our Bridgewater,SD #agronomyinaction trials for #Plant22
If you like agronomy, research and sharing what you learned we have a research agronomist role open in Nebraska

Last pass planting @GldnHarvest agronomy research trials in the beautiful Republican river valley. The lighter soils were forgiving, for planting but another day wouldn’t have hurt any. Perfect soil conditions are tough to come by this year
Forecast can make a person overthink switching hybrid RM. We still have low fall frost risk in most areas and the @GldnHarvest planting date trials supports staying with full season RM until last week of May. Moving 4-7 days earlier than max RM in last week of May is enough – at Ames, IA
We were able to squeeze our Waterloo, NE corn input management trial looking at how @NKSeeds hybrids respond to @NutrienAgRetail and @HelenaAgri crop inputs. Anticipate big starter fertilizer responses with the cool soil temps and limited nutrient mineralization so far. – at Elkhorn, NE
@360yieldcenter bandits worked nice for placing high salt products safely away from the seed
As planters start to finally roll, Nitrogen loss will be the next thing to watch. Depending on how quick soils start to warm and how much rain you get or don’t get, your risk will change. Nitrogen Considerations | Golden Harvest goldenharvestseeds.com/agron…

While there are industry standards for warm #soybean germination testing, there are currently no standards for cold #germination or vigor testing. Discover soybean seed test findings and early-season management considerations here: ow.ly/44Gi30sfks4
Corn moisture has dropped rapidly most everywhere. If using yield monitor to compare hybrids or management practices it’s essential to calibrate. Also be conscience of high error rate when harvesting hybrid comparison trials at high moisture.

As conditions change through the harvest season, it’s important to recalibrate your yield monitor. Do this whenever corn moisture changes by more than 2.5% when over 20% crop moisture to maintain <5% error.
The crazy things agronomist will do to measure stalk strength!!!!!@RanaeDietzel

In-field research from @SyngentaUS confirms that the Agrisure Duracade #trait is effective in limiting the impact of #corn rootworm. Read more about the #field study conducted by our Seeds agronomy team this summer: ow.ly/IQnf30rSRYU

Do you traditionally use the yield monitor to weigh plots on your farm?
If so, STOP
Yesterday, we weighed a plot and compared to the YieldSense in the cab. While the total field avg had 0.5% error the hybrid/hybrid difference was quite larger.
