Keep in mind when germination weather is good in the fall it always looks worse than it is. Say you had 2 bushel total loss; that would be 160k kernels per acre. If only 25% of those germinated and started growing as volunteer it would look like a thick population of 40k regrowth out there.


+1 it always looks worse then it is.

Even 1bpa loss, which is doing a very good job harvesting looks bad. If a bu is 80-90k kernels, and if even 1/3 of that germinates its just as much as you planted!
