We test the best corn hybrids in fields all across the state. This provides impartial data to help select hybrids and enhance profit. Thanks to all the growers, eight participating seed companies, and Extension agents who make this happen. 🌽#mscorn #MSUext #mscrops

Areas of the north Delta corn crop were due after being wrecked by greensnap last year, and it definitely came through. This outstanding hybrid plot was grown with irrigation by David Taylor near Sledge. Thanks to David, eight participating seed companies and all involved. 🌽

In the first 19 seasons of my career I had seen Neocosmospora root rot maybe five times. I’ve seen it five times in the last 10 days. The soybean disease is a red crown rot look-alike and apparently much more common in the Delta than I had previously thought @CropNetwork

The many faces of target spot. Some symptom presentation likely related to varietal differences as well as microclimate within the canopy. Even in a dry year, with irrigation (furrow or overhead) target spot can flourish within the canopy @MSSOY

A rare disease for MS soybean growers. Red crown rot has been documented in a limited number of counties in east MS (n=7). The plants in the pictures were all from Noxubee County, a county with historical instances of red crown rot @MSSOY
