Another day in the field! Today our team collected whole-plant biomass samples to support ongoing research on water use efficiency in tall- and short-stature corn, led by Ph.D. student Erick Oliva Stay tuned for more updates from this research.🌽 #CornResearch #PurdueAgronomy

Our team has been hard at work this week in Minnesota for our annual Content Development Meeting! Stay tuned for lots of new materials! #SoyCheckoff #ScienceForSuccess

🌽 𝗠𝗲𝗲𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺 𝗯𝗲𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗡 𝗡𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 Introducing Dr. Dan Quinn. His research and Extension program focuses on improving Midwest corn systems through agronomic research. Follow along as we highlight members and their work across U.S. corn systems.

The 2026 CORN Network Annual Meeting brought together Extension specialists across the U.S. to strengthen collaborations and plan future corn research initiatives. Thank you to everyone who helped make this year's meeting a success. @INCornFarmers @NationalCorn @BecksHybrids

“Stem canker can cause premature death of soybean in large areas of the field...The greatest impact on yield occurs when plants are infected early during the vegetative stages, and favorable weather conditions persist until later reproductive growth stages...” From the revised publication An Overview of Stem Canker at cropprotectionnetwork.org/publications/a… by @cropdoc08 @cropdisease @MartinChilvers1 @NCLegumeLady @DylanMangel @febina_m @dsmuelle @maddishires @badgercropdoc @AlbertTenuta @baldpathologist @MandyBish1 @MahDuffeck @travisfaske @alisonrISU @DTelenko @BisonBeanDoc +more #soybean #agtwitter #agx #grow26 #USSoy

Gray leaf spot of corn occurs virtually every growing season and is often more severe in corn following corn. Disease is favored by warm (80s°F), humid (>90% for 12+ hours) weather. Severity depends on hybrid susceptibility and environment. Resistant hybrids are available. Crop rotation and tillage reduce fungus survival. Foliar fungicides are available, but are less likely to be profitable if disease risk is low.

This #UpdateFromTheField comes to us from @LASoybean from the #ScienceForSuccess replant study! Soybeans from the original planting date of April 8 are shorter than those planted on April 20, but have many more pods and are further along. Stay tuned to learn more after harvest! #SoyCheckoff

Heavy rains have taken a visible toll on Indiana crops. On this week's Purdue Crop Chat Podcast, Dan Quinn and Shaun Casteel tour the fields at Purdue's Agronomy Center for Research & Education (ACRE) to show firsthand what's happening. WATCH THE PODCAST: youtube.com/watch?v=w0s-e4…

From one region to the next, farming conditions can look very different. Check out our previous posts to see the variability across the state. 📷 Thank you to our sponsors: @INSoybean @INCornFarmers @PurdueAg, @PurdueAgronomy, @PurdueAgryExt, @PurdueCorn, @PurdueSoybean

Sometimes, agronomic data can be hard to interpret. Our factsheet can help you better understand research results and apply them to management decisions on your farm: ow.ly/2qrp50ZbWPi #SoyCheckoff #ScienceForSuccess

For more than 150 years, @PurdueAg has grown by listening to the people and communities it serves. That approach became a statewide effort through #PurdueExtension, which for more than a century has connected local needs with @LifeAtPurdue in all 92 counties. stories.purdue.edu/listening-stil…

Research from @PurdueFoodSci shows that hemp seed may help reduce gut inflammation and relieve tissue damage, found in a dextran sulfate sodium-induced inflammatory bowel disease mouse model. Now, with funding from @USDA_NIFA, @LifeAtPurdue Weicang Wang and his team are further studying how hemp seed interacts with the gut microbiota and its potential role in preventing inflammatory bowel disease. #PurdueOneHealth #PurdueAg ag.purdue.edu/news/2025/07/e…
