This time around we discuss last week’s planting progress with some nice weather, but also how the weather likely won’t be favorable moving forward.

Dan and Shaun also discuss the different research trials they’re working on this year and what questions they’ll hopefully answer. Hear the podcast below!

On this episode, Shaun and Dan discuss the later start to the planting season. For soybeans, Casteel says, “We’ve got a lot of time left still to yield very well. I definitely like to be in late April/early May, but this is where we’re at right now and we plant to the conditions that we’ve got.”

This is Purdue Crop Chat, a regular podcast from Hoosier Ag Today and the Purdue University Extension Service, featuring Purdue Extension soybean specialist Dr. Shaun Casteel and Extension Corn Specialist Dr. Dan Quinn. On this episode, Shaun and Dan discuss how corn is no longer king in Indiana or the US after USDA’s Prospective Plantings report last week showed that farmers will plant more soybean acres than corn, and tips for those planting beans on beans. Also, with some farmers already hitting the field (maybe to get their neighbors all riled up), how early is too early to plant?
