crop

Howdy, I think I figured out how to post!! I'm located in Jackson Co. Mn. along I 90, in lakefield area. Soybeans: we have plant height of 4.5 ft. after a slow start, they really spurted in the last 6 weeks. Almost unreal, sprayed for aphids couple weeks ago, not finding any on checks except on one end where boom skipped. There are a few aborted flowers, but for the most part they are looking really good. Hail storm in area caused havoc on some fields. Corn: high yield potental barring an early frost, silks brown, could use one more rain, recieved moisture last week, wind has been calm for nearly 3 weeks. I attended a controlled drainage plot last friday, looks promising and may be something one would consider . Thw gist of it is, remove water for field operations, retain a subsurface level for crop use in periods of reduced rainfall. Regards, John III
