Tar spot playing a BIG role in pre-mature black layer in this PKP plot. Make sure you know your hybrid tolerance when choosing genetics for the 2025 growing season! #Pioneer
Mr. Relevant knows the importance of American agriculture. Do you have a picture from your farm that you want to share? 🤩 👇 Submit your photo in the comments below for a chance for NFL quarterback, Brock Purdy, to react!
Planting soybeans this weekend under so-so conditions? Do yourself a favor and KEEP THE ROLLER OUT of the field. You have plenty of time to roll them after they’re up. (Photo courtesy U of M Extension)
Why does corn at the edge of the field look terrible? There can be a few reasons, but drought stress exacerbated by exposure to heat and wind is probably the main one. I discuss this in Field Edge Effects in Corn on Page 112 of the Pioneer Agronomy Book. https://t.co/p5U5vCc71r
“Vapor pressure deficit” is a term you need to understand if you don’t already. This article explains it: High Temperatures Increase Water Stress in Corn, on Page 110 of the Pioneer Agronomy Book. https://t.co/p5U5vCc71r
Episode #59 of ‘Your Field is Our Office’ has dropped! Ashley & Jay discuss how warm soil temps could impact fall applied nitrogen with guest Jeff Vetsch of @UMN_SROC. They also talk early spring nitrogen apps as well. You’ll wanna catch this episode. https://t.co/LmIawtJhrQ
Major crops include both C3 and C4 species, but what does this distinction mean in terms of productivity and stress tolerance? - I put together an article that explains some of the basics: https://t.co/r2kHVZxP3j
D2-3 drought area in NC IA & I’m asked “ why is it so variable this year?” On the surface, soils look & feel very similar but 12-24” zones are VASTLY different. Grey clays w/ water holding capacity vs sandy clay are easily showing a 50-80 buswing in #corn @PioneerSeeds
We have been #1 in soybeans for 20+ years & counting! Thank you! The American farmer puts their trust in us because we bring them products that are more consistent & higher yielding than any other brand out there. More growers are planting more Pioneer brand A-Series E3 soybeans.
Your first line of defense to tar spot pressure is your seed selection. Pioneer® brand corn products showed a 5.9 bu/A yield advantage in areas of tar spot pressure.

2023 MN northern corn rootworm populations (and extended diapause) increased. Adults are aggregating on weeds an late corn now. Don't assume field edge populations reflect the whole field.
It’s so fun to see hybrids we have been excited about showing us what they’re bringing to the lineup. I’m particularly loving the ear characteristic diversity 😍
Kansas is in the midst of an impressive heat wave and the impacts to #agriculture and corn in particular are of concern. Learn more about #corn development in #Kansas during recent high temperatures in the article: https://t.co/U50kvNEEbw
