2025 Pioneer Sales Rep Yield Estimates!

2025 state of Iowa Average: 228.6 bu/ac
2024: 219.8 bu/ac
2023: 209.2 bu/ac

The big caveat for 2025 is will the crop be able to finish off the yield potential with the amount of disease that is present. Southern Rust in some fields will be taking a considerable amount of yield. Cooler weather the next two weeks will allow for tar spot expansion as well.

Interestingly planting date showed no trend in yield estimates. One again showing planting conditions rule when it comes to corn!

A huge thank you to all the Pioneer Sales Reps who collected 5,125 samples!

Corteva disease prediction model showing risk for GLS (gray leaf spot) is elevated and sure enough..... GLS starting to show up in most of the corn on corn fields I have been in past couple days. Be sure to discuss your fungicide plans with your local Pioneer Sales Rep!!

Keep in mind the disease "incubates" for about 10-14 days after infection before lesions show up.. Likely many more lesions coming... you just can't see them yet..

IA Pioneer Rep Yield est, 25 bu/ac-320+ bu/ac. Variability like nothing I haven't seen in my 3 decade career. Rate at which crop declined in 4 days like nothing I have ever seen. Estimates taken over 10 days ago b4 record heat. Obviously LOT of yield came off since then

[Justin Abell @jtabell5]

@Tmerrill425 @dylanbeak Wow...really?? I mean call it generational, but I still know like every word to every song of theirs! But again, you were going to stop and have a drink and get some #JAGSales Swag, but that hasn't happened yet either🤣

[Justin Abell @jtabell5]

@Tmerrill425 Hey now...we can't all be angels like you!🤣🤣
