Had an 1” of rain last night but back to shelling corn this afternoon. Ground was dry enough before the rain it’s not even muddy.

Twice the labeled field rate of #glufosinate failed to completely control this Wisconsin #waterhemp population (picture taken 14 days after treatment).
Plants were 3 inches tall and treated under ideal conditions. A concerning observation.

Please complete the survey to send feedback to the USDA and we will review the survey results and an overview of what the American farmer is asking for on @StandardGrain Premium on Thursday
The @USDA does not understand the loss of trust and confidence the American farmer has in them, and only radical change will regain it. Fill out the survey, and share this message if it resonates with you. forms.gle/oz9iHcD9XZCjP1Tq5
We’ve had a pretty good run for the last two and a half weeks. Calling for rain the next couple days and 1” of rain wouldn’t hurt my feelings. Need to fix a couple things on the combine and everyone could use a day off.
Shelling corn on a Saturday in October is more fun when you get to listen to a @MizzouFootball win on the radio.

“Symptoms caused by red crown rot can look similar to those caused by several other diseases. The presence of perithecia on lower stems and roots can improve the accuracy of a red crown rot diagnosis, but other fungi may produce structures that can look similar.”

This isn’t the only spot in the field either where they have worked it over.
