Although we’ve had early reports of tar spot, the hot summer days we’ve had should slow it down, which reduces the rush to get a fungicide on before tassel.
Tar spot develops under moderate temperatures.
Extended periods (30 days) of mild temps (64-73°F; 18-23℃) are optimum. Monthly temps exceeding 73°F (23°C) reduce chances of tar spot progression.

European corn borer found in stalks and ear shanks of conventional corn. Be sure to scout and schedule harvest accordingly.
Need a healthy 106/107 day product tolerant to tar spot? Look at A636-16! This hybrid is one of the healthiest products observed in this maturity in Eastern IL this week. Impressive!
This new AgriGold A643-52 has tremendous potential. Great health, long flex ear with high test weight grain. Eye catching across the entire corn belt! Adapted to all soils - looking forward to harvest results!
Excited too see a new 111 day A641-85TRC in the AgriGold corn lineup! Consistent ears, excellent tip fill and tremendous top end yield potential for highly productive acres.
Quite a bit of White Mold showing up after heavy rains this week in NW IL as well where rainfall has been plentiful. Start scouting.
AgriGold A636-11 looks outstanding here north of Morris IL. Nice length with consistent ear size and health. Great early option to start harvest with.

Vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is a measure of atmospheric humidity compared to humidity if the air was saturated. Large values = a "drier" atmosphere. Vapor pressure deficit from Chicago's Midway Airport (below) shows very high VPD values since March 1. #ilwx 1/3
