Scouting is similar for all corn ear rots. Starting at late dent stage (R5), choose 20 ears from 5 areas in the field. Pull back the husk to see the entire ear. It's critical to identify ear rots in the field as several ear rot fungi produce mycotoxins, which can harm livestock and humans. Contaminated grain can be difficult to market and may be docked in price. Find out more at Extension's cropprotectionnetwork.org/pu…. #AgTwitter #harvest25

Scouting is similar for all corn ear rots. Begin scouting at late dent (R5) for presence and severity of ear rots. Select 100 plants across the field (20 ears each from 5 different areas). Peel back husks to see the entire ear. Get ID and management info in An Overview of Ear Rots. at cropprotectionnetwork.org/pu….

Southern rust confirmed today on corn in Crittenden County, KY. Depending on growth stage, corn may need a fungicide application. Check the @CropNetwork map to track disease and determine if an application is needed! cropprotectionnetwork.org/ma… @UKAgriculture @UKExtension

If northern corn leaf blight is present in the canopy before and just after tasseling (VT), and conditions are favorable for disease, significant yield losses can occur in susceptible hybrids.
