I retire from my Extension Educator position with the Ohio State University today. Thanks for all the memories and friendships!

Cucurbit powdery mildew has appeared in Ohio. Time to scout fields regularly - make sure to also check the underside of leaves. See management recommendations here: https://t.co/ladJLBHv3e

Downy mildew was confirmed on cucumbers 6/22 in SW MI. Northern OH cuke growers should intensify scouting and begin recommended fungicide programs. See https://t.co/0iopuIpmfR

It's tempting to use fine sprays and low water volumes to improve sprayer productivity.

But don't do it.

It's not good for Ag.

Don't forget that enrollment for the 2020 ARC/PLC programs is coming up June 30. Some of you did this back in March with your 2019 enrollment. However, if you did or want to do a yield update, you will need to sign the 2020 paperwork. This is not a new election like March.

[Rory Lewandowski @AgtalkRory]

Saw corn from V-2 to V-6 growth stage in Wayne County this afternoon. No pest problems on any of the fields I visited.

[Ben Brown @BenBrownMU]

In the midst of planting and CFAP enrollment- don't forget that the 2020 enrollment deadline for ARC/PLC is coming up June 30. You do not get to change your election, but need to sign the paperwork for 2020. If you did a yield update last year, be sure to check on this at FSA.

[Ben Brown @BenBrownMU]

A lot of good information in this ahead of tomorrow's WASDE report. A couple things that stood out: US farm income falls to $79.4 billion in 2021 (still above 2016, but liquidity positions are different now) and direct government payments of $32.8 billion is very large in 2020.
