If you've been listening to the shows, you know I've wondered aloud how this week's heat will impact pollination. Given the moisture, not much seems the consensus of the Land Grant research. Here's a good summary article from @Asgrow_DEKALB.https://t.co/rFwYShYhBx

One more article on #corn pollination. Take a full read of this Aug 2011 @UNLExtension. It talks about pollination, high humidity, & high temps. In that year. FYI WASDE May yield est @ 158.7, Aug @ 153, Jan @ 147.2.https://t.co/ORBwMonGzU pic.twitter.com/x0bLvebYIC
