Now THIS field planted later in May has areas that will yield 190-200 bu/acre due to better moisture at pollination. Thanks to host Cliff Knip Farms on this piece of Biddulph silt loam (clay loam??) - just miles north of Kraft Hockeyville. #onyield18 ⁦@HDCAgronomy⁩

Here is the issue with some corn fields planted early. Kernel rows are 16, 18, 16, 16, 20, 16 but row length has counts as low as 24, 27, 28 from missing kernels at both ends of various cobs. Result is an estimate of 162.71 bu/acre. #onyield18 ⁦@HDCAgronomy⁩

Another disappointing yield estimate from North Middlesex were dry weather was received at pollination. Field has looked good since emergence but what should be 225+ bu/ac has a yield estimate from GrainYLD of 162.71 bu/acre. #onyield18
Stress response from hail can obviously occur on corn plant in other areas other than reproductive tissue (i.e. tassel and cob) #onyield18 ⁦@HDCAgronomy⁩

Hail at early tassel reduced pollination in this field. The yield estimate from GrainYLD is 141 bu/acre. Other fields in the Ailsa Craig area estimated at 165 - 200 bu/acre therefore hail caused at least 25 bu/acre yield loss. #onyield18 ⁦@HDCAgronomy⁩

Corn yield estimate on Dekalb 55-84 for Robson Brothers with GrainYLD App is 210 bu/acre. Corn following HDC white beans. ⁦@HDCAgronomy⁩
Population is very good when tip fill is not quite perfect. Yield Estimate is 208.11 bu/acre in this early planted field. Thx to our host Sunnydale Acres. #onyield18 ⁦@HDCAgronomy⁩

Excited to have the SoilOptix team install @HDCAgronomy SoilOptix sensor on July 5th. This will add a new Precision Ag service to shareholders. #SoilOptix xitter.cf/SoilOptix/status/10115…

1st time ever soil sampling in February! Spring samples on established winter wheat or corn stalks = thinking outside the box to allow timely fertility recs. @4Rnutrients. Thx to our partners who keep the equipment serviced/ready to go. @HDCAgronomy @HuronTractorLtd @Ag_Business

RT: Is there value in on-farm data? One company - @FarmobileLLC thinks so. And they paid. #farm #agdata buff.ly/2j0lM9q xitter.cf/FarmIndustryNew/status…

Dr. John Fulton - companies offering 10-12 in-season images for $6/acre. Exposes details not observed in yield data. Exciting! #FarmSmart
