  5. Survey to Estimate Impact of Recent Storms on Corn and Soybean Production in Ohio

    Author(s): Laura Lindsey , Author(s): Osler Ortez , Author(s): Stephanie Karhoff, CCA

    Drought conditions followed by rainfall from recent storms are impacting crop quality. For soybean, we have received reports of pod shatter, seed sprouting, and fungus development (Figure 1). For corn, we have reports of lodging (Figure 2) as well as potential concerns related to kernel sprouting and ear molds.

    Weather Extremes Abound

    Author(s): Aaron Wilson

    Climate Summary
    June was a warm month for Ohio, with temperatures averaging 1-3°F above the long-term mean (1991-2020). This was especially true for June 16-22, a 5-day stretch with daytime highs at or above 90°F. This was the second longest consecutive 90-degree day stretch for Toledo for the month of June. Growing degree days continue to run 120-180 days above normal, evident by the advanced growth in our crops across the state (tasseling corn, flowering beans, and early wheat harvest).

  10. Upcoming Webinar: Weather Trends and Pest and Disease Impacts on Soybeans

    Author(s): Aaron Wilson

    Please join Drs. Maggie Lewis, Horacio Lopez-Nicora, and Aaron Wilson on a webinar titled Weather Trends and Pest and Disease Impacts on Soybeans on Tuesday, June 25, 2024, from 8:30-10:00 am ET. We will update the latest climate trends pertinent to soybean-related pests and diseases, including increasing winter temperatures and extreme weather. We will investigate how abiotic stressors linked to global climate change impact insect pests, from changes in population growth rates to geographic range and phenology.
