#APSIM model simulations for central Iowa suggest that soils have lost their “drought” buffering capacity this year: much deeper water table depth than normal. @marklicht @castellmj @isuagronomy

On average, the optimum corn planting date in Iowa corresponds to USDA-NASS 18% progress; most likely climate scenario will increase yields by 6%. Check our new paper: authors.elsevier.com/a/1bE3G… Great work @Mitch_Baum @marklicht and Isaiah Huber #apsim @isuagronomy

Corn (111 day) planted May 16 in central Iowa had a grain moisture of 38% yesterday. The dry down calculator showed that moisture will drop to 25% by Oct 7 and to 18% by Oct 16. Check out your field: crops.extension.iastate.edu/… @isuagronomy

OK, you know what I’m pretty tired of? The trope that SMALL farmers are great and LARGE farmers suck.
I’m a small farmer and I’m here to tell you it’s utter nonsense. Let me tell you about the landscape of farmers in my community. And yeah it’s a thread.
