Manchester, OK | Corn is just now tasseling after a week of 100+ weather. Had 150 bushel potential but recent weather has likely backed that off to 100 IMO. Just got an inch of rain and two days of cooler weather (85-95) which i'm hopeful will help with pollination. The 15 day forcast doesn't look friendly (~100 w/ no rain) so struggling to spend another $22 on alfa guard to protect my bushels...when the reality is that if I don't pollinate well and we don't get another rain before July 1 i'm back to insurance levels (66 bushels county APH).
On the other hand, I'm concerned about the idea of marketing 60K bushels on high aflatoxin corn that will take .60-75 cent discounts depending on levels. No on the farm storage so marketing is a challenge. What are you all to the south and east of me doing? | |

Who is spraying for aflatoxin on corn?
