30 inch and 7 1/2 inch spacing line up really nicely. I am guessing that all four rows of oats will be visible and thriving again in a week or so, despite some damage from the planter unit today. We’ve had a good run, and hoping for some good rain.
Anyone else seeing a lack of planter down pressure impacting seeding depth during the May planting window for corn and soybeans? Seeing it in all ages of planters including those with hydraulic downforce.
Still rolling in corn. Staying at the edge of allowed harvest moisture. (14% sucks). Yields not too bad, pioneers giving dekalb the finger this year so far. Demo-ed a CR7.90 with a Bocuda Eagle head, not too bad, still like Red though.

I made a bit of a crop tour yesterday. I was able to find tar spot in Yellow Medicine, Chippewa, and Lac Qui Parle counties in Minnesota. Super light incidence but it’s out there. #tarspot
@brentlarson23 Is it worth sending some more samples in? I’m seeing more disease and bug pressure this year than I’ve ever seen in our area. Rusts, Northern corn leaf blight, even some grey leaf spot. Aphids and CRW. SCN. SDS. Phytophthora. All kinds of fun. N deficiency…ugh
What is the #SCN female index on PI 88788?
