With drought, disease and poor stands in the mix in some areas, Kansas State University Extension shares some considerations for growers who are facing a difficult decision whether to graze out winter wheat or harvest it for grain.

Here are some reports about the results and challenges discovered during the first year of in-field testing by Agriculture and Agri-Food Canada of the Harrington Weed Seed Destructor.

Researchers are studying the soil around sorghum plants in hopes of gleaning how microbes help the crop continue to produce during droughts, possibly providing clues to helping other crops improve drought tolerance traits.

With spring planting just around the corner, growers of cereal crops should be considering their management approach towards wireworms and other insect pests, says Washington State University Extension.

A proposal to use drones in the United Kingdom to flag areas with serious erosion issues seems to be getting traction. Should this be done in the U.S.?

One pressing topic addressed during a recent John Deere seeding equipment preview event in North Dakota centered on the seeding window and importance of planting as soon as soil temperatures and moisture levels allow.

Canadian scientists wanting to better understand why some canola varieties are resistant to clubroot are using special light beams for help with their research.

The Texas A&M AgriLife Research dryland wheat variety nursery near Bushland is being monitored weekly by drone flights, offering wheat breeders a chance to see changes on a more real-time basis.

Kansas State University Extension reviews the yield benefits of drought-tolerant corn hybrids to maximize production per unit of available water in dryland environments.

Many winter wheat fields were seeded late last fall because of rainfall at normal planting time, resulting in stands that aren't as competitive with weeds, and younger plants that can be more susceptible to herbicide injury. Here are some management tips from Nebraska Extension for this scenario.
