Success StoryYellow Corn that Should have Been Green



Yellow Corn that Should have Been Green

Author: Chad Lee

Planning Unit: Plant and Soil Sciences

Major Program: Grains

Outcome: Initial Outcome

A farmer had a field of corn that was showing yellow symptoms on the young plants. I visited the field with the county agent and determined that causes. I provided the farmer with a couple of options to remedy to issue. The farmer followed through with the suggestions and improved the visual health of the plants. The field is yet to be harvested, but the remedy likely added $1600 to the 20-acre field revenue.
