ON THE FARM by Andy Manne
This week’s ag report issponsored by:
It’s prime time to walk fields to check for any possible issues that could alter your harvest timeline.When you’ve battled Mother Nature all season to make sure you reap the highest yields possible,there’s nothing more disheartening than yield loss you could have prevented so close to the finishline. Make it a priority to check each field forstandability issues.When you scout, checkstalks in different parts of the field to get ahandle on stalk quality. Be on the lookout forweak stalks, perform push tests, split stalks andpinch the lower portions of stalks to determinestalk strength and if the stalks arehollow.Anytime you get more than 10% to 15%hollow stalks, tag that field as an early harvestoption. Things that could lead to an earlyharvest are nutrient deficiencies like nitrogenor potassium, leaf disease pressure and corn rootworm feeding. Standability issues don’t onlyaffect corn—soybeans can wind up on the ground too. The more pods and beans, the higher thesoybean yield, but the weight can cause standability concerns and seed shattering. Harvest soybeansin the 14% to 14.5% range to avoid shattering. It can be challenging to harvest every soybeanfield at exactly 14%. Overcome the challenge by planting a variety of soybean maturities tostagger harvest.Planting different soybean maturities can offer a bigger payback than just staggeringharvest. Standability in soybeans is dependent on variety, so planting a diverse group might helpyou diminish some risk over a large number of acres. When choosing varieties talk to your seedprovider and review previous years notes to see if a product will stand up at harvest.Going intoharvest with a plan in mind will maximize operational efficiency, reap higher yields and boostyour bottom line. Use the following 10 questions to devise your harvest plan:1 What maturity was the seed? 2. When did you plant the field? 3 When did the field pollinate?4 How does your rotation affect field health? 5 How does rotation affect disease history? 6 Whatdiseases or fungi are present in the soil? 7 Was the field under stress this year? What kind ofstress? Did you have drought, too much water or nutrient leeching? Drought can bring out mold,such as aflatoxin, which can mean problems at the grain elevator and harvest. Too much watermight encourage stalk rots and cause poor standability. Lacking nutrients means the plant willrob from the stalk to feed the ear, which makes it hollow and easy to knock over.8 What disease or rots are present now? 9 Are there ears or pods lying on the ground already?10 Does the stalk pass the push test? As you walk the field, push stalks to test their strength. Ifmore than 10% to 15% don’t bounce back because they break, make that field a priority. That isa potential 10% to 15% yield loss and could indicate the rest of the stalks are also weaker andcould fall with a strong wind.Be thorough during your end of season scouting. You don’t want to lose yield—especially in atight year when every bushel counts.

WE HAVE NOT FORGOTTEN!“We The People..” are the backbone, skeleton, flesh and blood of thisgreat country. Our government is simply a tool that allows us to achieveour goals in a civilized and organized manner.September 11, 2001 proved to us and the world that when the chips aredown it is individuals who make a difference. To us, “hero” is a termmore appropriately attributed to the actions of Todd Beamer, Thomas EBurnett, Jr, Jeremy Glick and Mark Bingham, the people who took itupon themselves to take down United Flight #93, fully aware of the con-sequences. But, they did it, and in so doing, saved countless lives. Indi-viduals like these men are the ones who have built this country and madeit great. They didn’t wait for any directive from a government agency.They didn’t beg for help or anguish over what they knew they had to do.They simply did it, and in doing so the terrorists were denied.
So, never forget!It is during times like these that many of us feel that our contributions are inadequate or not important. But, every effort we make on our own behalf or on behalfof others solidifies the foundation upon which our system of government sits. It is not the politicians, nor the media pundits, nor the bureaucracies that make this
country great. No.. it’s we, the people. Celebrate our freedoms, and be vigilant so that we don’t lose them.
