Dracula and Frankenstein can hit the bricks. Since the scariest thing for a farmer is pests in their fields, but no worries, we’ll be there all season to help you fight. Here’s to #harvest, and next year being full of treats and no tricks. 👻

#TuesdayTips with Jay Mahaffey: “Cotton farming isn’t arithmetic, it’s calculus.”
One wrong curve doesn't mean game over. Jay's unofficial motto? "Never say die in a cotton field." 💪

Could hear a pin drop as @Bugman70 shared his experience growing crops in the Mississippi Delta at #cropdays2025 #ontag @Bayer4CropsCA

First trial of the year planted. 4 hybrids planted 1.25” and 2.5” deep. Less than 24 hours ahead of cool rain. Not how I would do it commercially - we are doing science at the SLC. Our data long term says there is a time to not plant corn but not a time to plant corn shallow.

Cotton box mapping is over. It is the most we have ever done at learning center. The pile of plants over 8ft tall. Great data to follow !! @BurfordHarrison @Bugman70 @ideasgotogrow

New at the Scott Learning Center: a museum that gives you a glimpse into yesteryear. Here’s a preview. #ThrowbackThursday

This plant needs a name - or maybe at least a nickname. It’s a DP 2127 B3XF plant that has become the unofficial LC mascot. We plan to keep it growing around the office for a while. Any suggestions??

Just a friendly reminder to be safe during harvest season. Come see at the Learning Center. We just started harvesting a big crop. Results coming soon.

The ThryvOn Difference. An example of the damage, maturity delay and potential yield penalty that thrips can inflict. DP 2131 B3TXF on the left; and untreated, non ThryvOn competitor on the right. Both totally untreated for thrips other than insecticidal seed treatments.

Finishing touches on a few plots at the Learning Center today. This one is a supplemental mid season N application in cotton. Suggested by growers. 50 units in the form of Ammonium Sulfate. Come see us when you can. @DELTAPINE @ideasgotogrow @DKASDP_S_Delta @bayermidsouthtd

Refuge corn doing it’s job of generating susceptible ear worms. Infested nearly 100%. This is a cautionary tale for cotton and soybeans in about 3 weeks at the latitude of Scott, MS. KEEP SCOUTING!!! @Asgrow_DEKALB @ideasgotogrow @Bugman70
Jay Mahaffey retweeted
Impromptu study in the field today with the local agronomist. Secondary ear formation this year and folks are asking. In past work, they show and then get “reabsorbed” by the plant. Few developed at pops below 16k/ac. Check it out this summer! @ideasgotogrow @Asgrow_DEKALB

A significant hail event happened last night in the Delta. We have simulated this a couple of times - will be giving that work a refresh this year. Maybe this data can help with the situation this year.
