Lack of moisture a common concern Extension crop specialists provide update on crops by Greg Forbes A warm spring led to an early planting season throughout the state of Iowa. Unfortunately, many fields and farms have experienced an inhibiting lack of rainfall. Iowa State University Extension crop specialists and field agronomists throughout the state gave updates on how fields in their regions have responded to the early growing season, lack of moisture and other crop production factors. Black Hawk County (Northeast Iowa) Terry Basol, an ISU Extension field agronomist stationed Black Hawk County, said the spring allowed an early planting season which has led to an early growing season. “We are about 100 units ahead of a normal season,” Basol said. In fact, Basol expected to see silk on corn ahead of schedule, but the advancement of crop growth depends on moisture. “Moisture has been a concern from the start. We were a little dry from the get go as far as the soil moisture profile,” Basol said. “Right now, we are about
two to three inches of rain from where we should be.” Basol explained that, aside from crops, weeds also need to receive more precipitation, but not to grow. Dry weather has been a challenge to farmers because herbicidal treatments need water to activate. Also, the warmer and drier the weather, the thicker the weed’s protective cuticle will grow. The cuticle, which is a wax barrier, prevents herbicides from penetrating the plant. Basol said all factors to battle weeds boil down to the need of moisture. “There’s a much better chance for weed control with good growing conditions and good moisture,” Basol said. Black Hawk County, as well as northeast Iowa in general, did not experience the benefit of mid-June’s rainfall throughout much of Iowa. Basol said leaves in some of the fields have begun to show moisture stress. “There has been moisture that has fallen throughout the state, which is good, but for some reason we are in a dry pocket,” Basol commented. The lack of rain has also caused major root problems in area fields. Roots have not been able to form well, if at all, which has caused some corn crops to fail. Currently, Basol said farmers can only hold out for hope. “Right now, we are just hoping for rain to alleviate the stress on crops,” he said. CROP PROGRESS...Page 10

Iowa State researchers explore possible causes of honeybee disappearance Iowa State University is taking a team approach in studying what is behind the disappearance of honeybees known as “Colony Collapse Disorder.” Amy Toth, assistant professor in Iowa State’s ecology, evolution and organismal biology department, was awarded an Agriculture and Food Research Initiative grant by the U.S. Department of Agriculture to explore the importance of nutritional stress and viruses on honeybee health. She is working with researchers Allen Miller and Jimena Carillo-Tripp in the plant pathology and microbiology department and Bryony Bonning in the entomology department. “We’re taking a novel approach to studying the colony collapse phenomenon,” Toth said. “A lot of scientists are looking at viruses or nutrition or pesticides; our approach is the interaction among many factors and evaluating how they all work together.” Colony Collapse Disorder was recognized in 2006, but Toth said honeybees have been in trouble for decades. Beekeepers commonly experienced annual colony losses of 15 to 20 percent. In recent years however, there have been losses of 30 to 40 percent, and up to 70 percent in Iowa, forcing the beekeeping industry to take notice. The effects of colony collapse are sudden. Adult worker bees, responsible for supplying food for the
colony, vacate the hive and do not return, leading to an “abandoned” hive containing a queen and young, but few workers to maintain the hive. This rapidly results in the colony’s demise. Fewer honeybees to pollinate food crops has led some farmers to import bees from Australia to ensure an adequate supply. The USDA reported that bee pollination is responsible for $15 billion in added crop value, particularly for specialty crops such as almonds and other nuts, berries, fruits and vegetables. “This is a food security issue that seeks to maintain competitiveness of U.S. agriculture,” she said. “If pollinating insects disappeared from the food chain, the human diet would be much less diverse.” Scientists have so far been frustrated in pointing to one cause of the disorder. Some hypotheses include landscape changes, viral diseases, nutrition and human impacts, including pesticides. Toth and postdoctoral associate Adam Dolezal are focusing on the combination of genetics, behavior and nutrition using an experimental approach that seeks to recreate colony collapse in a lab setting. She said most previous research has been observation-based surveys of affected hives. “Like many human diseases, colony collapse is probably caused by multiple factors,” Toth said. They suggest that bee colonies are nutritionally
stressed, and this leads foragers to leave for food to satisfy the nutritional needs of the colony. When combined with viral symptoms such as seizures and paralysis, these weakened bees are unable to return to the hive. To conduct the experiments, Iowa State researchers are working with the state apiarist, Andrew Joseph, who undertakes beekeeping inspections and outreach for the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship. Joseph will travel Iowa collecting bees affected by Colony Collapse Disorder. At Iowa State, researchers will establish small experimental colonies of 3,000 bees, derived from Toth’s newly established Iowa State apiary of 20 colonies. Working in a contained greenhouse, researchers will infect the bees with viruses. Some colonies will receive poor diets, while others will receive nutritionally rich and diverse diets. Toth and colleagues will then study how the health of each colony is affected and will compare bees from the research trials to those gathered in the field. The study has implications for other insects that are pollinators, Toth said. “It’s not just bees that are sick. There are similar declines in many types of pollinators, including butterflies and moths,” Toth said.
Funds available for water quality and flood prevention projects Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey encouraged eligible groups to apply for grants to support projects that will improve water quality or help prevent flooding in the state. The Iowa Legislature provided $1 million to the Watershed Improvement Review Board to support qualifying projects. Funds are available to local watershed improvement committees, soil and water conservation districts, public water supply utilities, county conservation boards, cities and counties. “These funds will support projects that address specific water quality problems or that can help reduce flooding in our state,” Northey said. “Protecting and improving

Farm Progress Show site to expand for 2012 The 2012 Farm Progress Show will present the latest agricultural technology across even more show exhibit area with the latest expansion at its Boone show site. One additional street will be filled with exhibitors and ready for show visitors to review at the show set for August 28, 29 and 30. "When the Farm Progress Show site was built in Boone, it was designed to accommodate the largest show exhibit area that had been used at recent shows," said Matt Jungmann, Farm Progress national events manager. "As assignments for space were completed this spring, it became clear that extra space was needed to accommodate all the requests by exhibitors and the investment would need to be made to accommodate those requests." The Farm Progress Show exhibit area has grown from the 12 streets available at the last show held on the Boone site in 2010 to 13 for the upcoming August event. The increase brings the permanent show site to 3.68
million square feet of exhibit area, or nearly 85 acres. Additionally, the show occupies 300 acres for field demonstrations and test drive areas, plus an additional 180 acres for visitor parking. The 2012 Farm Progress Show exhibit field is open to visitors Tuesday and Wednesday, August 29 and 29, from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Thursday, August 30, from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Show admission at the gate is $12 for adults and $8 for students ages 13 to 17. Children under 12 are admitted at no charge. Discounted advance adult admission tickets are available now on the show's website at www.FarmProgressShow.com. The public is welcome. A full schedule of events and more detailed information will be posted on the show's website closer to show time. Individuals can use the Farm Progress Show app for iPhones and Android mobile phones, available in the respective devices' app markets.

IRFA: with EPA announcement, E15 is “good to go” in Iowa The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association (IRFA) announced on June 15 that Iowa is “good to go” for E15 sales following a federal EPA announcement that the final regulatory hurdles had been cleared. But the IFRA stated that while the pathway to E15 sales is open, oil industry barriers remain during the summer. “It’s serendipitous that EPA finalized the approval of E15 today, the same day Governor Branstad declared June 15th ‘Iowa Ethanol Day,’” stated IRFA Executive Director Monte Shaw. “It was 34 years ago today that the first retail sale of E10 occurred – and it occurred in Iowa. Now,
on the same day, Iowa is good to go for E15. Retailers complying with the waiver process and fuel regulations can begin selling E15 to 2001 and newer passenger vehicles.” While the federal and state regulatory hurdles have been cleared, E15 is unlikely to be widely offered during the summer. Due to a quirk in federal fuel regulations, during the summer (June 1 through September 15) the gasoline blendstock needed to blend E15 is different from the gasoline blendstock for E10. “Not surprisingly, the oil industry has used its fuel
distribution monopoly to keep the blendstock for E15 out of Iowa,” added Shaw. He continued, “Some in our industry are attempting to bypass the oil system in order to bring the proper blendstock into Iowa, but it’s too soon to know if that will prove feasible. Clearly, the oil industry isn’t interested in consumer choice or lower cost fuel. Oil is interested in maintaining its near monopoly and the artificially high oil profits that result. So while the news is exciting, that excitement is tempered by the artificial marketplace hurdles thrown up by ethanol opponents.”

Vacations and captivity behind me with his raincoat and filled my tank up for me. The first half hour of the trip was fun, as two of my wheels seemed to hydroplane down the road through the puddles on the right side of the road. My youngest son and I hit Des Moines a little bit after midnight to pick up my parents. I’d like to say a side note about some of the vacations my family took while I was growing up. Most of them were to California, where my mother’s sister lived, going through Colorado, where another aunt lived. We would pack up our van the night before, ready to set out in the morning. Inevitably though, we’d end up setting out around dark. I think my parents’ plan was to drive through the night so they could have some quiet on the road without the million questions kids ask. It worked for us too, as my youngest son riding in my vehicle would only have about a half hour’s worth of questions each time we stopped, then he’d be asleep until the next stop. Around hour six of my captivity, I learned that the credit card company will flag the card if you use it more than five times in four hours. Then, you have to buy gas with an alternate card. I’ve since learned from other families that the trick to avoiding this particular
By the time you read this, my captivity in the state of Ohio will be over and I’ll be home again in Iowa. My son has a Maintainer heifer named “Bessie” as a 4H project this year, so my son and husband thought it would be a dandy idea to load her onto a trailer and drive for 12 hours across three states to lead it around a show ring a couple times. This did not sound like my description of a fun vacation. In my version, I’m relaxing on a beach in between excursions of sightseeing. It really isn’t spending time in a dusty barn with a big animal. I called for reinforcements, who actually like this sort of thing since they grew up showing cattle - my parents. I also wanted my kids to experience a vacation with their grandparents, since I had so much fun vacationing with my grandparents when I was growing up. Since mom and dad were coming with us, this brought the total number of “vacationers” to six and the total number of required vehicles to two. After loading my vehicle, the truck, and the trailer with everything but the well, we started out around 10 p.m. in monsoon rains. I stopped to get gas, as I hadn’t done it earlier in the day. Big mistake. After the right side of my body was drenched, my husband pulled in

FARMER’S WIFE By Christy Welch problem is to call the credit card companies ahead of time. By letting them know you’re taking a crosscountry trip ahead of time, they won’t think you may be someone fleeing a murder scene with stolen credit cards. Good point. I did enjoy the looks from other travelers at the rest areas and truck stops as we were trying to get Bessie to drink. This usually entailed first finding a faucet or spigot that we could fit the big bucket under, then hauling the water into the trailer with us standing in front of the door so she wouldn’t escape. One particular man watched with great interest as my husband mixed in some flavored drink with the

water. It didn’t work, so we went back to plain old water. Bewildering the city people is a fun game; we get extra points if they actually come over and ask questions, but none of them did. Twelve hours and a time zone change into my captivity we arrived in Lima to set up the tie out “camp” and sign my oldest son up for the other competitions. Oh yes, this isn’t just a cattle show, people. It’s like a cattle decathlon. The teen also submitted a couple photographs for judging; made a poster in just 30 minutes to promote the National Youth Leadership Conference for high school students who show the Maine and Chi breeds; took a quiz about cattle in the Stockman’s Challenge; talked two judges into purchasing his calf in the salesmanship event; fitted a calf in 30 minutes in team fitting; and judged a few handfuls of heifers and steers in the livestock judging event. He’s shown his heifer a couple times already, and will have shown her another time by the end of the week. The only thing he didn’t do was the speech contest because he didn’t have time to do the research. Yes, people, that is 10 events if you’re keeping count.

had a great learning experience. I also know that my parents have had a good time following him around and watching him at all these events. I think maybe the salesmanship was our favorite since he’s inherited his grandpa’s gift for, um, talking to customers and making a sale. We’ll see when the results are announced. As I write this on day six of my captivity - the only day without an event for my son - my mother and I are planning to leave the boys at the fairgrounds and escape to visit a quilt shop in a nearby town. Hopefully, we’ll see some things on the way as well. We will be able to head back during the daytime, so I supposed we’ll have the million questions from my youngest son. But we won’t be really tired on the road either. The boys are already talking about next year’s Junior Nationals, which will be hosted by Grand Island, Nebraska. That’s only four hours away from home, thank goodness! But, next year we’ll have two kids showing so it may be a bit more hectic. This cattleshowing business certainly isn’t for the faint of heart. I only have nine more years of my captivity left until my youngest son graduates from high school, or 12 if he shows until he is 21. Yikes!

Iowa Public Television to Farm Bill Forum and Luncheon set for Logan rebroadcast “Timeless Tractors” The Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership and the Izaak Walton League of America are sponsoring a Western Iowa Farm Bill Forum and Luncheon from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Wednesday, June 27, at the Logan Community Center, 108 West Fourth Street, Logan. The purpose of the event is to allow area farmers, community members, conservation leaders and public policy officials to discuss the 2012 U.S. Farm Bill and how it can better conserve the state’s natural resources, sustain fish and wildlife habitat and outdoor recreation opportunities, and safeguard rural economies. The forum and luncheon is free and open to the public. Among those participating in the forum will be representatives from: U.S. Senator Chuck Grassley’s office Congressman Steve King’s office Theodore Roosevelt Conservation Partnership Center for Rural Affairs Every five years, a massive piece of legislation called the Farm Bill determines how billions of federal tax dollars will be spent to shape American agriculture. The last bill, passed in 2008, carried a price tag of $288 billion.
in memory of host Mark Pearson At 8 p.m. on Monday, June 25, statewide Iowa Public Television will broadcast “Timeless Tractors,” a documentary hosted by Mark Pearson. Pearson, a long-time host of Market to Market and other Iowa Public Television series and specials, and a veteran farm broadcaster on WHO Radio, died earlier this month at the age of 54. Pearson's love of "old iron" was well known, and he was an advocate for the restoration of antique farm tractors. In 1996, he co-founded the "Great Iowa Tractor Ride" with WHO Radio - a tradition that continues today. The 16th annual tractor ride will take place June 24 through 27, and Iowa Public Television's broadcast of “Timeless Tractors” is scheduled to coincide with the ride. In “Timeless Tractors,” originally broadcast in 2003, Pearson reminisced about the advent of mechanized agriculture and the love affair people have with antique farm tractors. The program features people from all walks of life who collect and restore these old relics, from farmers with an appreciation for the utility of the machines to urban collectors who delight in the hunt for old iron.

ISA invests in Hall of Pride ag exhibit The Iowa Soybean Association (ISA) is partnering with the Iowa Hall of Pride, located in downtown Des Moines, to help tell the story of Iowa agriculture’s past, present and future. With ISA’s $25,000 investment in the Iowa Hall of Pride’s Agriculture Exhibit, design and construction began this spring with a tentative opening date in the fall. The exhibit will share with visitors where the agriculture industry is today and the direction of its future. “We want to share the story of Iowa agriculture,” said Jack Lashier, Iowa Hall of Pride director. “We will have interactive stations with planting and harvesting and timelapse videos of the growing seasons of soybeans and corn. “We are also planning to have interviews with individuals from our various corporate sponsors, kiosks explaining ag-related majors from Iowa State University and generational interviews from Iowa farm families.”

The potential for a pheasant comeback A guest editorial by John Klein, Carroll County Pheasants Forever member Recently, the new Pheasants Forever Farm Bill Biologist in Carroll, Chad Hotlen, predicted that this would be a good year for our local pheasant population to start a comeback. The pheasant numbers have been down dramatically the last few years to the point that pheasant hunting is not very successful and therefore fewer and fewer people participate. This is a sharp contrast to 20 years ago, when pheasant hunting was not only a popular local fall pastime, but also an economic engine for Iowa. Out-of-county, and out-ofstate hunters would come in with their cash and credit cards and buy licenses, food, lodging, gas, and supplies. Collectively this totaled several million dollars to the Iowa economy at the time of year when tourism was at a low. There are several reasons why pheasant numbers are down, but one of them is not overhunting. Bad winter weather combined with loss of winter sheltering areas is probably the biggest reason. That leads us to 2012… This past winter started with historically low pheasant numbers last fall, but the winter was not only warm and it also lacked much snow cover. Most of those 2011 pheasants made it through the winter and are mating and nesting now. That brings me to the topic of today. What can we do in June to increase the nesting success of the few pheasants we have left? Because the birds are nesting now, the best answer is to: DO NOTHING. For the short term success of nesting, the best thing we can do is

to keep mowing of grassland habitat to a bare minimum. If you do not have to mow, then don’t. Save on gas, your time and your mower by only mowing as little as possible in waterways, buffers, field borders, and other grassland areas. How does that help pheasants? First, it provides them with more nesting habitat. Second, it avoids your mower hitting a nest and destroying eggs or birds. And third, it spreads out the habitat for predators like raccoons, skunks and such over a wider area so the chances of a nest being found, and devoured, by predators is less. This summer we have the best chance of greatly increasing our pheasant numbers. They will still be poor, but hopefully not as dismal as in 2011. It will take years to get back to the populations of the hay-days of pheasant hunting. But we have to start somewhere, and the past mild winter has given us the best chance to make a difference locally in our pheasant population. So DO NOTHING when it comes to field mowing unless it is really necessary. Give those nesting pheasant hens a chance to bring a new clutch of 10 chicks to maturity. One final thing, at the Whiterock Conservancy’s Bio Blitz last week, I had the chance to speak with Bill Clark, a wildlife biology professor at Iowa State University. I asked him his professional opinion on the continued use of lead shot and its potential harm to non-target wildlife. He is a strong believer that the days of lead shot should be over. That the poisoning of other animals by ingesting the lead pellets off the ground is real and the time is now for all ethical sportsmen to only use non-toxic ammunition.

Rain falls but more is needed Compiled from USDA and Iowa Secretary of Agriculture reports Recent dry conditions around the state were quenched with some much-needed rain earlier this month. According to State Climatologist Harry Hillaker’s weekly weather report issued on June 18, four widespread rainfalls temporarily aided a near dire condition for emerging crops from June 10 to 16. Statewide precipitation for the week averaged 1.5 inches. Southwest Iowa benefited the most from the precipitation. Approximately a dozen counties in the southwestern most corner of the state experienced an average of three or more total inches for the week. Red Oak, in Montgomery County in southwest Iowa, reported more than five inches of rain. However, unlike earlier in the growing season, the northwest corner of the state received considerably less rain than the rest of the state. Sibley, the county seat of Osceola County in the northwest corner of the state, recorded just one-tenth of an inch of precipitation for
the otherwise wet week. Recent rain was much welcomed to most of the state, especially the eastern half. While most of the west sits at an adequate amount of topsoil moisture, areas in the northeast, north central and west central regions of the state are well below 50 percent of adequate topsoil moisture. The western half of the state has a reasonable amount of topsoil moisture but the state as a whole is well below last year’s average. Currently, just 45 percent of the state’s topsoil is at adequate soil moisture and one percent sits at a surplus. At this time last year, 97 percent of all topsoil in Iowa had an adequate amount or a surplus of topsoil moisture. Desperate crops also benefited from below to slightly above average temperatures last week. Temperatures throughout the state stayed in the 70-degree range but periodically rose into 80 to low 90-degree temperatures. The needed rainfall plus the semi-warm conditions provided relief for corn growers and their crops throughout the state. The rain helped propel crops that may have been at a standstill growth-wise despite an

early planting season. Currently, silk has been seen on corn throughout the state of Iowa. Two percent of corn plants in southwest Iowa have shown silk, which leads the state. While crop growers were able to start the planting season early due to warm temperatures, recent conditions have inhibited crop progress. The USDA’s report on crop production revealed that just 68 percent of corn crops are in good to excellent condition and less than half of all pasture or rangeland has dipped below good condition. Nearly 98 percent of soybean crops have emerged, which is a week ahead of schedule; however 61 percent are rated at good condition or above. With the weather looking to dry out in the near future and temperatures on the rise, the recent rainfall may not be enough. “Much of the state received timely rains last week, but the hot dry weather remains a concern and is impacting crop conditions,” Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey said in comments about the weekly USDA crop report.

Iowa E85 sales rebound in first quarter The Iowa Renewable Fuels Association (IRFA) announced on June 20 that E85 sales in Iowa rebounded during the first quarter of 2012. According to the Iowa Department of Revenue, sales of E85 by Iowa retailers reached 2,319,835 gallons during January through March, up from 1,940,119 gallons the previous three months. “E85 and gasoline prices narrowed during the end of last year, driving E85 sales below two million gallons per quarter for the first time in over a year,� stated IRFA Executive
supplies and reducing the need for expensive foreign oil. “Based on the ISU study, Iowans are saving well more than $200 million each month thanks to ethanol,� added Shaw. “That’s $200 million not flowing out of Iowa. Those $200 million stay in Iowa and are spent on other goods and services, resulting in a huge boost to the Iowa economy.� Iowa currently has 167 retail outlets offering E85. A list of all the E85 stations can be found at www.IowaRFA.org/ethanol_e85refueling.php.

CROP PROGRESS, from Page 1 This year, Basol said planters took advantage of favorable corn prices and planted as much corn as last year and possibly a little more. “Growers are sitting on a very good crop to raise,” Basol stated. Iowa County (Southeast Iowa) Iowa County Extension crops specialist Clarke McGrath said the warm spring allowed farmers in the county to plant as early April. Nearly 20 to 30 percent of corn plants were planted ahead of schedule. McGrath said the early planting of corn could possibly lead to early pollination. If pollination is early, a large amount of plants may tassel shortly after the Fourth of July. One factor that would speed up the pollination process is cooler temperatures. McGrath explained that

average daytime temperatures of 80 degrees and nighttime temperatures of 60 degrees would be ideal to provide early growth. “If temps are in that area, it sets itself up for a very good grain fill,” McGrath said. But with an early growth season comes earlier crop threats. Weeds have posed a problem to farmers and McGrath said the only way to battle persistent weeds is to stay on herbicidal treatments. The weather also caused unevenness in corn plants. Crops planted in the early, wetter season have been given a chance to grow but crops planted in the dry periods of May have been stunted slightly. “As far as height, the corn is up and down in these fields,” McGrath stated. “It’s just a weather-driven phenomenon - not a lot we can do about it.” McGrath added that the recent dry periods have weakened the condition of the soybean crops. “The soybean stands are pretty ugly right now,” McGrath said, but continued that if the moisture patterns continue, the plants should recover and produce. “Beans are good at adapting and hopefully we won’t see any hail or pests.” McGrath said while the planting season started earlier than last year, farmers, for the most part, did not increase the number of corn plants in a field. He added that soybean numbers will not increase this year because corn has been successful and abundant in recent years. “The trend right now is for a lot of corn,” McGrath said. East Pottawattamie County (Southwest Iowa) Due to the unseasonably warm spring, farmers in Eastern Pottawattamie County were able to get a jump on the planting season. The early crops, according to Aaron Saeugling, East Pottawattamie field agronomist for Iowa State University Extension, are in great shape for an abundant yield. However, crops planted after that period have suffered. “There was a cold and rainy period that slowed us down”, Saeugling said. “We got some planted but that crop has struggle a bit. They were stunted a bit by the cold and damp weather and now the dry weather has certainly compounded that issue.” “But if rain was on While the dry weather has hampered the growth of some the menu at a plants, Saeugling said the crops are in decent shape restaurant, I would moisture-wise, although more precipitation is always welcomed. still order about an “As a general rule, we’re doing pretty good,” Saeugling inch a week.” said. “But if rain was on the menu at a restaurant, I would ~ Extension Field Agronomist still order about an inch a week.” Aaron Saeugling Saeugling said pollination this season will be “hit and

miss,” mainly due to the planting period of crops. The crops that were planted early will pollinate two weeks ahead of schedule but those that were planted during the colder weather and have grown during the dry period, would be behind normal pollination time. “And sometimes that’s in the same field,” Saeugling said but added that it was too early in the season to worry about pollination. “We just have to take it as it (pollination) comes.” For the most part, the early planting and growing seasons in East Pottawattamie have not led to an increase in threats to crops. But Saeugling said that weeds have a longer period of time to wreak havoc on plants. “It will be a little more difficult to control so we’re probably going to have to make more herbicide applications,” Saeugling said. “There are probably just going to be some thin corn stands in some fields.” This year, growers did not experiment with a noticeably larger amount of soybeans. Saeugling said most producers have continued to plant corn as the dominant crop and that if farmers planted more soybeans than usual, it was not a significant amount. Clay County (Northwest Iowa) Like most of the state of Iowa, farmers in Clay County took advantage of an unusually warm spring. Extension Field Agronomist Paul Cassell said corn and soybean growers were able to plant as early as late March. “We had roughly six planting dates,” Cassell said, which included dates in early and late April and all through May. The early planting season will lead to early pollination as well. Because plants started growing early, Cassell explained that they can now take better advantage of the long days of sunlight. Although most of northwest Iowa benefited from early wet conditions, Cassell said Clay County did not have the luxury of constant moisture. In May, many fields throughout Clay County were dry and those dry conditions led to poor development in roots. But because of the recent wet period, root damage has been corrected. Cassell said the early growing season has led to some weed issues, but lately, weed and pest issues have been “quiet.” Cassell said looking out on the fields, most producers still

rely heavily on corn but mentioned there may be slightly less plants compared to last year. Boone County (Central Iowa) Central Iowa has experienced perhaps the least luck with ideal weather. Extension Field Agronomist Mark Licht said farmers had just a six-week window to get crops planted and since those six weeks, lack of moisture has crippled growth. “We’ve been missing the big rains,” Licht said. “We’ve had some but they’ve been scattered and in low amounts while other places are getting inches at a time.” Licht added that the dry periods have caused a potential delay in pollination. Some plants may pollinate on time but some could be weeks later. The only major threat to crops right now, according to Licht, is the dry weather. Due to the lack of rain, roots cannot reach deep enough in the soil nor are they developing normally.

“Roots are definitely not as prolific as they should be,” Licht said. A lack of rainfall has also prevented herbicides from taking full effect. Aside from the dry conditions, Licht said farmers will need to keep an eye on Japanese beetles. They were a minor presence in Boone County last year, but due to the jump on the growing season, the beetles are drawn to the tender leaves of corn plants. The layout of fields this summer favors corn once again. Licht said the breakdown currently lies at about 70 percent corn and 30 percent soybeans. “Growers probably planted a few less soybean plants this year,” he said. Licht continued that while some farmers cycle crops, most in Boone County prefer to keep their fields annually corndominant because corn prices favor the farmer. “Prices for corn make it hard not to plant corn year after year,” Licht said.

STATEWIDE IOWA FARM & RANCH
JUNE 22, 2012
Farm bill may cost $969 billion over 10 years by Joseph Morton, Omaha World-Herald Bureau The U.S. Senate on Tuesday, June 19, started plowing through a long list of amendments to the pending farm bill, although high-profile proposals to strip popcorn subsidies and raise federal grazing fees failed to reach even a vote. Further debate on the amendments deemed worthy of consideration was expected later in the week on a bill projected to cost $969 billion over 10 years. On Tuesday, the Senate voted to boost rural development funding and change dairy reporting requirements as it moved through dozens of the amendments. Lawmakers approved Senator Chuck Grassley's (R-IA) proposal to place a $75,000 cap on the total amount of loan deficiency payments and marketing loans one person can receive in a year. There is no cap in current law. The vote was 75 in favor and 24 opposed, with all Nebraska and Iowa senators supporting the amendment.
"The reform will help to bring about more defensibility for the farm program," said Grassley. Senator Ben Nelson, D-Nebraska, offered an amendment to better target bonus payments to states for how they administer nutrition assistance, the program known to most as food stamps. That amendment was approved on a voice vote. A Republican proposal to eliminate the bonus payments was defeated, with 41 voting in favor and 58 opposed. Midlands senators split along party lines with Nelson and Iowa Democrat Tom Harkin opposing the amendment and Grassley joining Nebraska Republican Mike Johanns in support. The Senate was expected to vote during the week on an amendment by Johanns that would prohibit aerial surveillance by the Environmental Protection Agency. The agency calls those flyovers an effective and efficient way to help enforce the Clean Water Act and root out offenders dumping livestock waste into waterways.
But Johanns and the rest of Nebraska's congressional delegation said farmers and ranchers are concerned about their privacy and have raised questions about the EPA's authority to conduct the flyovers. Harkin, however, questioned Tuesday why the flyovers were such a big deal. "You can go to Google Earth and get anything you want right now anyway, so what's the difference?" Harkin said. He said the Iowa State Patrol uses planes to catch speeders and he questioned why the EPA shouldn't have the same capability. "People ought to be warned that if they're going to pollute and stuff like that they're going to get caught," Harkin said. Among the amendments that did not make the cut for consideration was Arizona Republican Senator John McCain's proposal to strip out language benefiting popcorn growers. Also left out was a proposal by Nelson to bring federal grazing fees more in line with the private market.
