Follow up from same field. Main stem height was same for both April and June planted soybean. June planted finished with 18 main stem nodes, but lower nodes were blank and few branches. April planted had 21 main stem nodes, more branching and pods on all but bottow node.

“Hey my late planted (june 8) soybeans are catching up with my late April planted soybeans. They are the same height when I walk thru them. Wonder if there will be a yield difference?”. Looks a little different when you remove the leaves. 12 vs 19 main stem nodes + branching.

A pure play Ag company sounded really “cool”. about 2 years ago. Right now it sounds like a big and dangerous mountain to climb. We roll out on the mission Monday bright and early. Ag is ripe with opportunities and problems to solve. #corteva.

When life is not fun, when weather stinks, when life is hard. I always try to think about what would make my father proud. He wouldn’t like negative thoughts, quitting, or not accepting the hardship. God never gives a burden we cannot bear.

Suggested reading during #noplant19. “It’s a trpublesome world. All the people who’re in it are troubled with troubles almost every minute. You ought to be thankful, a whole heaping lot, for the places and people you’re lucky you’re not!
