In this field, this is year 6 of corn on corn in a no-till (we have coulters on planter) situation.

Monster yields.  3 pass N program, if you are interested in it.

We applied 2 rounds of fungicide, once in late July and once in late August, for Vomitoxin and tar spot.

While the Dekalb 5982 did yield slightly better, the Pride was drier netting us a few more dollars.  All in all pretty equal.

Pretty light sand here – rain (and heat) makes grain.  That being said, the field looked terrible for most of June and July and did not turn around until late July.  The yields surprised us as well.

2024 Pride vs Dekalb Plot

I am happy to post our plot results for 2024.  This is not the plot located at the Haggerty Office – unfortunately due to rain that plot sustained severe water damage from heavy rains in June.

Overall yields were excellent.  We only sprayed this plot once with Delaro-Proline.

For fun here is a picture of one of the heavy rain events from my office window.

The timing is near to getting it spread.

At Haggerty, we have 2 options:

Spread with drone (no wheel tracks, can spread on unfrozen soil).  Our partners at Drone Spray Canada assist us with this.

Or, traditional spreading service with APV spinner spreader.

Contact Theresa, Josh, Jill or Al if you require more information.  Typical rates are 8-10 lbs per acre.
