Postemergence scouting plays a critical role in protecting your yield potential, and knowing what to look for — and when — can make all the difference. In this episode, we’re joined by Joe Bolte, Market Development Specialist at Corteva Agriscience, to talk through the key things farmers should be watching for once their corn and soybeans are up and growing. Joe walks us through how to evaluate the effectiveness of your preemergence herbicide program and explains how to identify early signs of weed escapes, insect pressure, and disease threats like tar spot.
We also explore how weather patterns, herbicide timing, and canopy development influence scouting decisions and treatment options. Joe introduces two of Corteva’s latest postemergence herbicide offerings — Kyro® for corn and Enversa™ for soybeans — and explains how they provide flexible tank-mix options and help manage herbicide-resistant weed populations. Whether you’re walking your fields, using drones, or leveraging scouting apps, Joe shares practical tips to help you stay proactive instead of reactive.
From stand counts and weed ID to fungicide application timing, this episode is packed with agronomic insights designed to help you make better in-season decisions. Don’t miss this conversation on how to keep your fields clean and your yields protected as the season progresses.
