Itโ€™s been a cold and damp April across IL, pushing much of #plant22 into May. Letโ€™s not forget how fun #plant19 was though and put the two in perspective. Warmer temps and better weather on the way ๐Ÿคž

First day of emergence notes in progress! 2823RXF standing out this morning with early vigor and consistency in Woodford Co. planted 4/23. This will be a solid late group 2 soybean for us in 2023 that will move well throughout N. IL #Bayer4IL Channel N. Illinois

Day 2 of the Northern Illinois Channel Seed Plot tour. Looked at corn west of the Illinois River. Corn is looking good for the conditions itโ€™s been through.

Bad week to be a soybean. Great morning to harvest a Stone soybean plot! 2XF2874 took the top spot, great new 2.8 MG addition to the lineup for 2024

White mold is getting easy to find in the northern Illinois soybean crop. SDS and BSR also showing up. Now is a good time to scout. The next few weeks are critical for finishing out yield potential.
