Some ugly stalk rots starting to show up in areas of Indiana. Something to watch out for this fall. Best thing to do is prioritize the fields that have it and get the corn out of the field asap.

Was able to spend last week traveling East-Central Indiana with @DTelenko and @PurdueSoybean. Very eye opening and disheartening to see the impacts from the early August storms and flooding on the crops in this area of the state.

🚨 New from The Kernel Lab! 🌽
Can narrower rows help when pushing seeding rates?
20-in (51-cm) rows enhanced yield at 3 of 4 site-years, and the response to seeding rate was more pronounced under narrow spacing at two site-years.

New from Crop Protection Network: research-based guidance on hail injury and fungicide decisions in corn, co-authored by CORN Network member Dr. Dan Quinn. 🌽
Fungicide is often considered after hail injury to corn due to the plant health statements present on many fungicide labels coupled with the natural desire to take action following a hailstorm.
An Overview of Hail Injury and Fungicide Use on Corn provides info to evaluate the potential benefits of fungicide application, and make the most profitable management decisions following hail injury in corn in upcoming growing seasons.

🌽 Timing matters when managing foliar diseases in corn.
Drs. Daniel Quinn and Darcy Telenko discuss how well-timed fungicide applications can extend grain fill, increase kernel weight, and ultimately contribute to higher yields.

Earlier this week, Dr. Dan Quinn shared ongoing research on nitrogen loss and management during the Pinney Purdue Agricultural Center Field Day.
The discussion covered common N loss mechanisms and research evaluating nitrogen inhibitors.
Thanks to everyone who joined us!🌽

Ear rot disease is also something to keep in mind!
Another thing to consider this year on top of all the rainfall we have had is the persistent cloudy days and lack of sunlight. Here is a snapshot of solar radiation data over the last 3 weeks in central Indiana in comparison to the last 5 years.
