We are currently 212 GDUs behind average, but surprisingly we are only 62 off of last year’s pace. If an average day is figured we are almost 10 days behind the normal. These figures were pulled off of Pioneer.com. Please let me know if you have any questions.
There have been some reports of aphid levels reaching threshold in central Iowa. I have seen a few fields with a fair amount of aphids but nothing that is “blowing up”. Usually at this point in the season we are far enough along that we don’t need to worry about this pest anymore, but with the cool conditions we need to continue to scout. Please let me know if you have any questions.
A neighboring Pioneer rep brought his drone to my place to demonstrate the ability of the drone to take pictures of the crop. The camera took amazing pictures and video. I thought I would share a few pictures with you. One thing that is very apparent is how much variation there is in the crop when it looks flawless from the road.

Runner Seed participated in the 2014 Jasper County Fair Parade. We had a great time and enjoyed seeing everyone. It was a warm night but the kids did a great job walking the route handing out candy. We will be back next year!
