    Kick'N Dirt Around the Field: Summer Field Updates

    Mike and the Kevins are Kick' N It this episode, talking about what they are seeing in corn and soybean fields. Diseases have been pretty minor so far, but insects have been prevalent with lots of adult beetles to keep an eye on. As tassel approaches, it’s time to start thinking about fungicide applications. Leaves may be clean now, but with the humid mornings, those plants may not be healthy as they progress. The group also talks about the hail damage to crops in Nebraska and water usage.

    Kick' N Dirt with Jason Gibson and talking about white mold management

    Mike and the Kevins are Kick' N It with Jason Gibson, Market Development Specialist, Corteva Agriscience. The group discuss white mold and how to scout white mold in your fields and what to do if and when you spot it. White mold is a disease of high yield potential soybeans – the better the establishment and growth of the crop, the greater the risk of white mold. White mold is favored by cool and wet weather and dense soybean canopies that help retain these conditions under the crop canopy.
