It's a bit too early to discuss much about pests, but as a lead-in to future early-season pest issues that could result from this late spring, it's important to look at agronomic issues related to planting when soils are still cold and wet. Dave Nicolai chats with U of M agronomists Drs. Jeff Coulter and Seth Naeve about current field conditions and when to plant corn and soybeans. | 23m 11s | ||||||

Perceptions on what neighbors are doing can influence grower decisions, though one farmer after seeing this survey data remarked, "Wow, I thought all my neighbors were using fungicide on their corn." Often times, growers are using less pesticide than we might perceive. | 25m 01s | ||||||
