Thanks to all of the 140+ folks who attended the 2023 Musgrave Research Farm Field Day and helped make it so engaging! Read about more about it in this Cornell CALS news article: bit.ly/3rYKsmK

Low level tar spot severity examples as requested by @alisonrISU. 1, 2, 3, and 4 percent severity shown.

"...research suggests the development and increase in [tar spot] under field conditions is primarily driven by extended periods of moderate ambient temperature and short periods of high relative humidity."

Register & bring any and all questions on cover crop seeding to this GROW Farmer Forum on July 18! A really cool mix of farmers will be talking, from Delaware, New York and Texas. Sign up here: growiwm.org/join-a-grow-fa…

Why does the #soybean industry rely so heavily on PI 88788, a source of genetic resistance that #SCN populations are increasingly able to skirt? It’s complicated. Learn about the SCN sources of resistance that are available to farmers. thescncoalition.com/news/2023/05/1…

Hey y’all, Cornell’s Aurora Farm Field Day is coming on August 3rd! Lots of great talks with three (!) weed science presentations. Register today! cals.cornell.edu/2023-aurora-fa….

Been getting lots of questions about grass control in corn. Have a site for demo plots.

Root-knot nematode disease cycle in soybean. This disease reduced soybean yield by 13.1 million bushels in 2022.

Come out to a Soil Health Field Day at Rodman Lott & Son Farms in Seneca Falls on July 13 from 10am-3pm #NYSoilHealth morningagclips.com/come-out-to-a-…

PRE herbicide trials in corn (evaluating soil adjuvants) at 6-7 weeks after planting (and thru a very dry spell).

This ⤵️ Attn NYS veterans we have soil health field days across the state, if you are interested in attending, make sure to apply for a veteran scholarship thanks to @SmallFarmsProg. See fielddays.newyorksoilhealth.org for details on upcoming events.

Another corn herbicide trial comparing weed control programs with & without atrazine in NNY. Similar results to our other trial location, 35 days after application, no difference between any of the treatments. Atrazine rates 0, .625, 1.0, 1.375 lb a.i./A

Soil- and field-specific yield potentials for #soybean are helpful in crop management and resource allocation (e.g. fertilizer and manure). 📈Read our latest article showing the summary of soybean yield data shared by farmers in Western and Central NY 👇🏽blogs.cornell.edu/whatscroppingu…

In 2020, the dairy industry committed to the goal of achieving greenhouse gas neutrality by 2050. Now called the "US Dairy Net Zero Initiative," prof. @QKetterings & @CornellProDairy's Kirsten Workman are leading NYS participation in the initiative. cals.cornell.edu/news/2023/04/c…

Can you spot the manure and the no-manure strips? 💩🌽 Glad to see corn growing well in one of our Value of Manure plots. When a field reaches the V4-V6 stage, we collect soil samples to understand how manure impacts nitrogen availability and general soil fertility.

Some reminders if you are planning to spray dicamba in dicamba-tolerant soybeans. blogs.cornell.edu/whatscroppingu… @fieldcrops_org @CornellCALS @LynnSosnoskie @MikeTheCropGuy
