Dealing with drought stressed corn silage meeting today with @thursthill @mjhickson9 in Lindsay area. Samples were from the same field. The one on the left is nearly completely earless. We almost always overestimate how dry drought stressed corn silage is. Patience game to

Be on the look out for spider mites. Fields with drought-like symptoms are a good place to start. The stippling on the leaves is a good indicator to flip that trifoliate over to look for them - your phone lens is a great tool to spot em.

As post emergent soybean spraying ramps up remember to follow proper mixing order with Enlist 1 herbicide. It is CRUCIAL to follow proper mixing order to avoid chemicals salting out in the tank. Never mix Enlist 1 and Glyphosate concentrates together!

Got a cow of high sentimental value with leukosis and low nutrient absorption. Open right now, but would like a calf to carry on pedigree. Worth hitting her with immune support and multi-vit to try to and get her preg? Or cut my losses? Rts and advice appreciated! #AgTwitter

This wise gentleman was enjoying the yields of their @PioneerSeedsCA Z series Enlist soybean plot today. “I remember when 40bu used to be a great yield in this county” Plot averaged 59bu #whatsnexthappenshere

The next generation of Ag is looking good! The Shea girls did a fun portrayal of a farmer and their Pioneer team at the LEX Best Dressed Calf show!

Be extra careful when spraying soybeans this year. 60% of Pioneer soybeans sold in middle eastern ON are E3 and tolerant to Enlist chemistry but will be damaged or killed by even low levels of Dicamba. Call your local Pioneer Sales Rep if you have any doubt @PioneerSeedsCA

Stripe Rust spotted in the Lindsay area today also.
Stripe Rust found in the Port Hope area this morning. Strongly encourage you to scout your wheat ahead of T3 fungicides and choose your products wisely to stay on top of this devastating disease. Reconsider if you were thinking of skipping this pass. @PioneerSeedsCA
