Test Comments: This location started off great with planting and emerged really nice, but super saturated soils following emergence caused the plot to look a little uneven all season long. I believe this took the top end of the yield off. Pollination was not bad, but there was about 3/4″ tip back. Did see some Anthracnose and Tar Spot on the leaves. Corn was still standing well and had good ear shank retention.
