Wheat has entered the Feekes 7.0-9.0 stage. These stages are past the point where most herbicide applications are labeled. Application can result in sterile heads so carefully look at stage before making any further herbicide applications. Report and scouting I have done have identified very little wheat disease. Stagnospora was found in one field. I have not found powdery mildew but it likely exist at very low levels. No insect problems are being identified but we will continue to look for armyworm.
Corn planting did progress in the county to where we appear to be around 50-60 percent complete. Some are reporting being done while others are just getting started. The earliest planted corn has emerged and stands are good.
Soybeans are just started with around 10% planted.
