Keeping It Independent

Happy 100th episode!

August is here and the corn is looking, by and large, pretty good. But we can't take our eye off the ball! Disease pressure is ticking up, and we all know how quickly a positive yield outlook can turn sour.

On today's episode, the agronomy team shares crop updates from Illinois and Iowa, checks in on aphids, and covers the latest on tar spot & southern rust.

Shoutout to our "junior agronomist", Gracie, for joining us to celebrate the milestone episode!
