I’ve seen it first hand multiple years in a row. Shiny new names don’t offer better protection, new traits offer better protection…against the pest and against resistance. #Bayer4IL #DefendLikeAPRO @AGDKC_ECIL

This crop is deteriorating quickly, just because you applied a fungicide doesn’t mean you have oak trees out there. Tar Spot is real! Our future management will change from here out!
Tar Spot “advice” from someone who experienced severe cases in 2018 - Watch your stalk strength this fall. Prioritize harvest field-by-field. With all the in-season stresses in our area this year, I wouldn’t leave anything out there too long. #TarSpot

#SDS starting to show up. Not surprising with the amount of moisture in ECIL and early planting soybean dates.

Having the meeting we never wanted to have. Lee Waters from @farmcredit discusses PP scenarios. He made a great comment, “ Planting date doesn’t influence our final yield, it’s the weather after planting and fall.” There’s still a lot of yield potential left. Go get it!

Here’s where we currently sit in IL for GDDs. ~ Half of CRW eggs are hatched by the 750 GDD mark so we’re not too far off in central IL. Saturated soils up until now haven’t caused mortality, but if the current wet trend continues I would expect populations to be reduced

Scouting a local fungicide trial in Owensboro, KY planted & sprayed by @SinkyARM & TDR Brad Schottel. Gray Leaf Spot made an early appearance in S. IN & KY. Notice the difference in lesions creeping in the upper canopy based on app timing vs the unt. check. Delaro Fungicide used!

A little gray leaf spot. A little northern leaf blight. A lot of yield potential! (16x48 ovules). I would like fungicide on this if it were mine! @DKAS_NIL

The more corn I look at the more fungicide I think needs sprayed. Why? Great crop growing, continue to get timely rains and very heavy dew, several fields with wind damage, major GLS. And the list goes on!

Scouting today after beans heavy gray leaf pressure. Corn 100% tasseled and silking. Check your fields. Even hybrids with good tolerance has lots of lesions working its way up!!! No brainer to spray this yr 🌽🌽

If ever there was environment to test the value of a fungicide appl., it would be this year. Split a field. Make untreated area wide to minimize any marginal fungicide drift. Request sooner than later. Many fields will be scheduled. Timing is important.
Palmer Amaranth Lessons from 2017: Palmer growth accelerates with temps over 90 while many weeds slow down. It also increases HPPD enzyme production making HPPDs less effective. Here is what we learned last year: – at Glenwood, IA
