The consequences of flooding, ponding, and saturated soils on young corn depend heavily on the duration of the stress and temperatures.
When a freeze occurs early in the spring after soybean fields have been planted, damage is dependent on many variables, especially the growth stage.
On the latest Purdue Crop Chat podcast found here and on iTunes, Purdue Extension Corn Specialist Dr. Bob Nielsen and Soybean Specialist Dr. Shaun Casteel talk about the impact of the frost event over the weekend and if replanting will be necessary.
To make excellent quality hay, the forage needs to be cut at the right growth stage and packaged into a bale at the right moisture content without incidence of rain damage.
