Based on projected GDU accumulation, corn planted yesterday in Northern Iowa should emerge May 1 - 3. This will be the time to start to take stand counts. 👀@DKCAsgrowNWIA @Bayer4CropsUS

As farmers prepare to evaluate this year’s crop for the first time, learn about how corn and soybean stands are assessed and what to do after. 🌽🌿 dekalbasgrow.co/4dbD9eT

Great info on soybeans as we get close to the start of the planting window in Northern Iowa. @DKCAsgrowNWIA @Asgrow_DEKALB @Bayer4CropsUS

@pete_90210 @DKCAsgrowNWIA Very good yields but variable. It’s early yet but not the best yields I’ve seen overall.
English
@jfmcde @DKCAsgrowNWIA Are these some of the best yields you have seen?

Harvest is going strong in NWIA with corn moistures in the low 20’s. Want harvest data this Fall - sign up below. @DKCAsgrowNWIA

@RosburgAg @DKCAsgrowNWIA Good to hear! Not bad for third week of September.

Northern Corn Rootworm Beetles having a party in NW Iowa. Easy to see why we have to manage for rootworm even on rotated acres. DEKALB has great options with traits like SmartStax Pro, SmartStax and VT4P. @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @BayerTraits

@pete_90210 I believe that’s a buildup of Anthocyanins. Looks like no sink (ear) to move them into so they accumulate in the leaves and stalk.
English
Anyone know what causes this?

This new DEKALB hybrid - DKC108-64 - has looked outstanding in the field. It also contains the SmartStax Pro trait which has shown to have superior corn rootworm control vs. anything on the market. Talk to your dealer early. @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @BayerTraits

@jfmcde @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @Bayer4CropsUS The best brand ambassador out there! Bayer is lucky to have you!

I’ve been proudly representing DEKALB hybrids for 28 years as of today. Two great ones here I’ll continue to represent going forward. I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else as an employee or as a customer! @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @Bayer4CropsUS

@pete_90210 @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @Bayer4CropsUS That’s awful nice of you to say Pete! Thanks.

@jfmcde @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @Bayer4CropsUS CONGRATULATIONS! You are a big part of the reason of the 20 years of dominance Dekalb has had in NW Iowa!

@ToddClaussen @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @Bayer4CropsUS Thanks Todd! That means an awful lot coming from you.

@jfmcde @Asgrow_DEKALB @DKCAsgrowNWIA @Bayer4CropsUS Shoe…You’ve done it so well. You provide “without doubt” advice.

DKC59-87rib planted May 2 - about 2 weeks after pollination/R2 blister stage

With fungicide applications going on currently in this extreme heat, I would not be surprised to see this in Iowa. Good video. @DKCAsgrowNWIA

Current situation in Stress Degree Days. We’ll see what this looks like in a week. 😳
Eric Snodgrass@snodgrss
Heading into this week's Midwest heat wave, I wanted to post the current accumulated stress degree day map. Calculated by adding degrees above 86°F for each day. Example: if today is 95°F, 9 SDDs are accumulated >140 SDDs could result in corn yield loss Data: PRISM April 1

@alisonrISU @NicoleStecklein @PioneerVande @MNelson_ISU @rkvittetoe No - fairly decent tolerance. The Goss’s Wilt hasn’t spread much in the field or in the canopy yet.
English
@jfmcde @NicoleStecklein @PioneerVande @MNelson_ISU @rkvittetoe Are these hybrids rated susceptible?
English
Hearing reports of Goss’s wilt in eastern IA. I know there are some #awesome agronomists out there - have you seen any? @NicoleStecklein @PioneerVande @MNelson_ISU @rkvittetoe
