Another #ChannelFest down, and Minnesota, you did not disappoint! 🌽

It was a great night of bringing farmers, families and the Channel community together.

A special thanks to Channel SeedPro Jeff Grommersch for hosting us, and to everyone who attended. We couldn't have asked for a better night! #AlwaysShowUp

Just a heads up that we'll do an extended @cyclonefanatic pregame show today from Dublin. Plan is to go live with @JakeBrendTV and @ROBWGRAY at 9:30 Iowa time. Thanks to @Iowa_Channel for coming on board to sponsor all of our game day shows this football season. We'll be live every pregame, halftime and postgame across all social platforms and of course, our podcast feed.

Overly tight tassel wrap has become a hot commodity over the past week in the broader corn belt geography. 🌽 Learn from Channel Agronomist @AustinSchleich and other industry professionals on this challenge in the field. #RiseToTheChallenge #ChannelingUp https://t.co/mgeyqie5mi

[Matt Nelson @MNelson_ISU]

Great article here on tassel wrap from an industry perspective.

Notes:

Data points to small unbranched tassels (genetic)
Observed April 15 - May 7 planting dates.
Found in northern states too (MN/WI)
Other pollination issues do exist (poor pollen shed)
