We’re training our #MSUext agents to use soil moisture sensors! Each agent sets up a soil moisture sensor demonstration and works one-on-one with producers in their counties. The SMS Demonstration Program is aimed at giving growers hands-on training 🌱💧 #MSUext #MScrops

It was a hot but very successful day in the Delta. #MSUext agents were equipped on irrigation termination so they could bring that knowledge to growers in their counties. Understanding when to properly terminate irrigation not only saves water but also money and time. #mscrops

UPDATE 2: White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt says earlier reporting about March 1 #tariff date is inaccurate and she confirms that "the president will be implementing tomorrow 25% tariffs on Mexico, 25% tariffs on Canada and a 10% tariff on China":

This system has been tried by some farmers in the Delta (focused on yields) and there's a trial at National Center for Alluvial Aquifer Research looking into this (focused on profitability)+other alternatives being evaluated. Key is economic moisture level of corn at harvest+plant soybean behind combine.

3/3 For #wheat in 2025, there is also a slight lean toward ARC-CO, though PLC will again likely pay more at low prices. From today's 'ARC/PLC Choice' webinar

Galling from the southern root-knot nematode is oftentimes difficult to observe on young soybean plants. Look at the roots of “healthy” plants on the margins of areas where dead plants occur as a result of RKN MS SOYBEAN BOARD #mscrops MSU Extension Plant Diagnostic Lab #Extension Chang Liu, Ph.D.

After a few sunny days, #corn is wilting. If we check the #soil, it is clear moisture is not short. Accordingly, leaf wilt is a very unreliable indicator of #irrigation needs. More sunshine and aeration are the best cure for this matter. 🌽#mscorn #MSUext #plant25 #mscrops
