Considerations for fungicide applications on silage corn - Farm and Dairy

Spring weather this year created a long, drawn-out planting season. The earliest planted corn that I have seen is projected to start tasseling July 9, while another farm I was on recently won’t have corn tasseling until about Aug. 20. This long silking and pollination window between fields could easily lead to each field having very different disease pressure. Scouting each cornfield as it begins to tassel and assessing weather conditions are im…See the Story

Can Conservation Tillage Work for Soybeans? New Research Says Yes—with the Right Adjustments - Field Advisor

Conservation tillage practices like strip-till and no-till are gaining ground across Illinois as farmers look to improve soil health, reduce erosion, and cut input costs. But for soybeans, these systems sometimes come with a catch—lower yields.  To address this, a research team led by Dr. Giovani Preza Fontes at the University of Illinois, inWork · IllinoisRead Article

Volunteer Corn Control in Soybean - Field Advisor

While visiting some fields in Henry County this past week, I found several with volunteer corn that will need to be controlled in the post-emergence pass. Although tillage or pre-emergence herbicides were used to prevent or take out early germinators, the volunteer corn has come up and is competing with the current soybean crop.Agriculture · Henry CountyRead Article

How Cover Crops Are Affecting SCN Levels in Illinois Fields - Field Advisor

As more Illinois farmers turn to cover crops to boost soil health, reduce erosion, and improve water quality, a key question remains: how do cover crops impact one of soybean’s most persistent threats—soybean cyst nematode (SCN)? With SCN present in more than 80% of Illinois fields, understanding how management practices affect populations is critical.Illinois · IllinoisRead Article

What in the Waterhemp Do We Spray? - Field Advisor

Waterhemp continues to be the weed of discussion this time of year in northern Illinois. The lack of rainfall has led to waterhemp escapes in soybean fields, and now the race is on to keep ahead of the weed pressure.
