Several calls about poor soybean nodulation this week, mostly on fields new to #soybeans or out of beans for 3–5 years. Inoculants are living organisms—storage, treatment combinations, and time to planting matter. No nodules by V4–V5? Apply 60 lb N now and another 60 lb at R1–R2.

Some early stages of Physoderma getting started. Not a simple one to diagnose with just the leaf lesions. Look for the midrib lesions that are the more characteristic brown coloration #mscrops

Why is this corn wilting despite soil being wet for weeks? Corn readily wilts during V stages when temps rise. In this case, high humidity and lack of aeration in the soil limit plants’ ability to transpire and cool themselves. Always check soil moisture before irrigating. 🌽
