ABIOTIC ISSUES

Be on the look out for herbicide damage. Cold, wet herbicide soaked soil can wreak havoc on corn stands. Soybeans are showing contact PPO damage..

COVER CROP INSIGHTS

Cover crops have been hard to kill in some fields. Be aware of your tank mix components and how they may affect each other. If any components burn the weed leaf tissue too quickly, the glyphosate will not have the chance to absorb.
