Wind and hail damage has pushed this to the top of the list in 2025

Plant architecture helps corn beat the heat!

@erinwhodgson First started seeing them last Thursday in NC Iowa. They were buzzing all around at our field day outside Britt this morning

NC Iowa will be seeing adult CRW emergence next week! These are likely NCRW - I assume Extended diapause playing a part here.

@BenRiensche Hand crank windows?! Sign me up! Reminds me of my 90’ Dodge Dakota

Late season plant health differences showing up drastically! Tar spot came in hard on this later planted trial. For reference, each of these treatment blocks have 4 different hybrids. Excited to see what the combine shows! @SyngentaUS @GldnHarvest

Even with the cool down last weekend, grain moistures are getting pulled down quickly. Likely close to a point per day. I’d expect to see that average potentially even rise with the 7 day forecast. Still some color in the crop though!@GldnHarvest

Check out the 4 bean pods on these GH3023XF @GldnHarvest

Soybean population trial near Traer, IA with @HunterDDanker. Very cool to see branching differences and how podded up these beans can get! @GldnHarvest

@BARippe She’s got plenty of flex to her. Don’t be afraid to drop the pops down a bit on it

@BARippe 12U11 looks great too. It’s just I think it needs good fertility and I wonder how much toughness it has to it. I’m speculating a bit here but I think you need a pretty strong Nitrogen program for it to hit. But yes, we also have a big need for Duracades in our Corn on Corn market

Picket fence stands lead to picket fence ears. Pretty little maids all lined up in a row. G13U96 with ear consistency, great disease package, and comes with the Duracade trait. Great fit for that rough and tough acre

Some crazy bad Tar Spot in some fields out there. This field might be one of the worst I’ve ever came across! We knew the environment was ripe for it, now we’re seeing some fields really falter. Better get out a scout to get your harvest plans ready!

@HallAgServices @KirkwoodCC @SyngentaUS July 29th. Drone applied

@RupeAndrew @KirkwoodCC @SyngentaUS What date was Miravis applied

Southern Rust blowing up a bit in the canopy at our @KirkwoodCC Agronomy in Action site. Corn is about a quarter to half milkline. Same hybrid and Fungicide vs Untreated is about 100 feet apart. @SyngentaUS

Hard to find a better hybrid characteristic than brown husks on a green & clean plant (yea yea I know….YIELD). G03U08 along I-80 planted on May 6th. Could be shelling corn and testing out the dryer in a few short weeks

This G03U08 is some attractive corn ✅Short, Stocky Plant Structure ✅Late Season Plant Health ✅Ear and Tip Fill + Test Weight ✅Knockout Yield Punch @ZacharyRKing and his team is making things easy for us! 🚀🌽🚀

Some stark visuals on how that extra in-season N pass might be paying off this season. Nitrogen programs will really be showing differences come harvest time! ⁦@GldnHarvest⁩
