This week at the SEPAC Field Day, our students @erickoliva95 and @nzapata053 presented on short stature corn hybrid and the use of biologicals in corn production. Field Days connect students, researchers, and growers. We’re glad The Kernel Lab was part of it! 💡🤝

Last week, I successfully defended my M.Sc. degree. Grateful to all who supported me (see slide), especially God, my advisor @PurdueCorn, committee members @PurdueSoybean @DTelenko, and @Bayer4CropsUS for funding this work! One step closer! @PurdueAgronomy

I am deeply grateful to God, to my advisor Dr. @PurdueCorn for the opportunity, to my committee members Dr. @PurdueSoybean and Dr. @DTelenko for their guidance, and to everyone who made this possible. One step closer to the goal!

🚨 Visiting Scholar Opportunity at Purdue Agronomy – The Kernel Program🌽 The Kernel Program is now accepting applications for a Visiting Scholar position! Join the corn team by applying here: ag.purdue.edu/department/agr… @PurdueCorn @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAgryExt

A big congratulations to my grad students @erickoliva95 and @a_moralesona who both won awards at this event today. @PurdueAgronomy

Corn Agronomy team grad students bringing home 4 departmental awards this year. Always proud of the hard work these three put into their projects. @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg @a_moralesona @nzapata053 @erickoliva95

🌽Dr. Dan Quinn, PU Extension Corn Specialist presented at the 6to Foro Intagri de Maíz de Alto Rendimiento in Guadalajara, Mexico last week. Sharing his research on corn response to starter fertilizer applications. @PurdueAg @PurdueExtension @PurdueCorn @PurdueAgronomy

Excited to share I attended the North Central Soil Fertility Conference in Iowa, received an award, and represented @PurdueAgronomy ! Grateful to God, Dr. @PurdueCorn , and all supporters. My research focuses on optimizing N rates for short corn hybrids. Amazing experience!

Thrilled to present my research on Short Corn at the @ASA_CSSA_SSSA Meeting in San Antonio and honored to win 2nd place in the M.S. poster competition! Thank God, Dr @PurdueCorn, @PurdueAgronomy and the Corn team for their support. Great learning, skill-building, and networking!

Great few days for our team at the @ASA_CSSA_SSSA conference in San Antonio. Lots of hard work put into their research and posters/presentations. @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg @PurdueAgryExt

Congrats to my grad student @erickoliva95 for placing 2nd in the M.S. poster competition in the C3 CSSA division at the @ASA_CSSA_SSSA conference. Very proud of him and the work he has done. @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg @PurdueAgryExt

Short corn hybrids stand strong, while tall corn struggles with lodging! We're testing both with varying nitrogen and seeding rates. A couple of weeks ago, 36 MPH wind gusts at the Southeast Purdue Ag Center put them to the test. @PurdueCorn @PurdueAgronomy @Bayer4CropsUS

Last month, I had the opportunity to represent the Corn Agronomy lab at ACRE's (Agronomy Center for Research and Education) 75th anniversary celebration. Thanks to everyone who organized this valuable event! @PurdueCorn @PurdueAgronomy

On August 29, I had the opportunity to present my research on the new Short Corn Hybrids at the DPAC field day. Happy to represent the Corn Agronomy lab in this meeting. Thanks @PurdueCorn for the opportunity. Great time interacting with farmers! @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg

On August 27, I presented my research on Short-Stature Corn Hybrids at the SEPAC Field Day with my advisor, Dr. Dan Quinn @PurdueCorn . I'm thankful for his support and the opportunity to engage in extension. Thanks to everyone who organized this valuable event! @PurdueAgronomy

The Corn Agronomy team grad students stocking up on some department awards/scholarship hardware today. Very proud of them and the work they do. @erickoliva95 @a_moralesona @M_Bartaburu @PurdueAg @PurdueAgronomy

My graduate students looking good presenting their work at the Nitrogen Use Efficiency conference at the Univ of Illinois. @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg @erickoliva95 @nzapata053

Off and running for #plant24. We were able to get in quite a few studies the last couple days. @erickoliva95 @a_moralesona @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAg

#BattleForTheBelt Indiana edition has begun. Which crop should you plant first: Corn or Soy!?! What say you @StepUpSoy and @OrtezCornCrops? @PurdueCorn @PurdueAg @PurdueExtension @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAgryExt

First two studies of the year established yesterday. Fertilizer placement x hybrid root structure and Indiana #BattleForTheBelt planting date. Feels good to be back. @PurdueAg @PurdueAgronomy @PurdueAgryExt @erickoliva95
