Prioritize harvest for #corn fields with 10% or more rotted stalks. If the stalk base is easily crushed when pinched or if plants easily break when pushed, stalk rot may be an issue. Ask local #Extension for more information. @PACropDoc @YuanZeng3 @bobkemerait @CropAndSoil @alabamaED @baldpathologist @TNplantDR @cropdoc08 @OSU_HortCropSci @MartinChilvers1 @ILextension @badgercropdoc @UMNExt @DTelenko @alisonrISU @dsmuelle @MandyBish1 @travisfaske @ppp_trey @tamusoilcrop @MahDuffeck @rodrigobonofre @KSUCropdiseases @tjcksn @NDSUcerealpath @maddishires @AlbertTenuta @IanMSmall1 @UDPlantPath #agtwitter #harvest2023 @PurdueCorn @SuccessfulFarm @FarmBureau @NationalCorn @ccecornell

Silver leaf syndrome showing up in corn in West Lafayette, IN. Symptoms typically observed in leaves facing the sky and in dry/low humidity conditions where rapid heat loss may have occurred. Crop effects are negligible and no yield loss should be observed. @PurdueAgronomy

I am once again here to give you advice on #Plant23 this week. My advice? Check the calendar. Understand soil temps are colder than we’d like. Plant some beans. – at Ames, IA

Here’s what the GDU forecast tells me about planting this week… April 17th planting will emerge May 6-7 and takes on significant weather risk this week. Planting April 24th will emerge May 8-9 and avoid all the weather this week. IMO, I’d wait… #Plant23

Photo 1 shows emergence risk for a April 11 panting, which is either medium or high risk. Scheduled to emerge in 12 days on about April 22nd (photo 2) Photo 3 shows risk of panting Monday next week (very low) but emergence will take longer, emerging May 2nd (photo 4) #plant23

Folks… I said put the brakes on as we got towards the weekend, and now I am strongly recommending you PUT THE BRAKES ON. 3 days of mid-low thirties with rain forecasted over the weekend = leafing out underground/imbibitional chilling danger zone 🚨🚨🚨 #plant23
