It’s August 15th, 2025. You walk into your field and see this. Long season maturity. You’ve already fungicided this year. Hot and humid forecast.
What’re you doing?
On #FarmworkerAppreciationDay, and all days, we recognize the dedicated team members who keep our dairy farms running around the clock each and every day.
Conducting photoshoot of Canada thistle plants @CornellCALS research farm for collecting weed image database for #AI based weed detection. Collaborative project on weed image repository with #USDA and @GetRidOfWeeds team members
Glyphosate-resistant marestail is a significant challenge for no-til soybean producers. We will be testing alternative burndown chemistries that can be used to control glyphosate-resistant marestails in Enlist soybean. Stat tuned !! @CornellCALS @ccecornell
Spring wheat trial got sprayed before rain @CornellCALS campus farm. We are testing Tolvera herbicide alone or in combinations for crop safety and broadspectrum weed control. Stay tuned! @ccecornell
Imagine a weed that grows over an inch a day, chokes out crops & shrugs off common herbicides. It’s not science fiction—it’s Palmer amaranth, & it’s a real threat.
Cornell research identifies threats and helps farmers fight back. https://t.co/1laMxKcKDa
AI and robotics could revolutionize farming—detecting and managing crop diseases before they spread in order to help feed a growing planet.
Cornell scientists are spearheading research into these technologies. Future farming is here. 🚜🌍

Drastic reduction in #waterhemp seedling density at crop planting time (May 14, 2025) in @gchudzik1’s cereal rye #covercrop treatments at the Rock County Farm (Janesville, WI)!
No-till (no cover crop): 63 waterhemp seedlings per sq ft
No-till with high-biomass cereal rye cover crop (~36 inches tall rye): 0.25 waterhemp seedlings per sq ft
252-fold difference in #waterhemp seedling density on May 14, 2025.
High-biomass cereal rye cover crops can provide tremendous early-season weed suppression, especially in challenging springs for chemical weed control like this one. @WISoyCheckoff
America needs both renewable energy and productive, resilient farms and ranches. Smart Solar℠ can be the solution.
@SchneiderElec chats with American Farmland Trust's national Smart Solar director Ethan Winter. #solar https://t.co/qn9amEJmQh
NEDPA's VP of Regulatory and Legislative Affairs, Allyson Jones-Brimmer, shared with @farmdaily that New York's upstate farms can be part of the solution to food security concerns of downstate legislators.

NY's ag industry continues to lead in environmental stewardship. Investments in BMPs over 5 years have reduced 661,633 metric tons of CO2 emissions, equivalent to removing more than 154,000 cars off the road for one year.

This #EarthDay and every day, America's farmers and ranchers are taking care of the land, air and water and leaving it better than they found it. Sustainability: #ItsJustWhatWeDo https://t.co/zr7Rhv6M4e
“Agriculture has an output of $9.53 trillion, which amounts to 18.7 percent of the entire United States economy. This shows just how important ag really is.”
