Other observations in the corn plot



Just a quick note of some other observations in the corn plot this morning. The corn overall is very impressive with nice sized ears and good height. I noted that milkline has begun to move on some varieties, however, as noted the total plant moisture has not changed. I also noticed a fair amount of grey leaf spot in the plot, however this will have little to no affect on the plant at this stage. It seems around the county in general we are set to have a great crop this year. Even much of the late corn planted is looking great especially after Friday's rain. Hopefully we will get some real nice corn silage put up so we can make the milk roll once prices return and help fill in the gaps created by this price slump.
