With the majority of our corn crop finishing up a few things to keep in mind.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Irrigated Corn: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Most of our crop is now full dent or beyond, we have made it to the point where we can tolerate some foliar disease and not suffer greatly, so if you have made to R5 (Dent), we generally recommend that you are in the clear for fungicide applications and foliar diseases. We have not found southern rust in SC this year as of today, so very little concern for that impacting our corn crop in 2026.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do not terminate irrigation too early. We need to make it to black layer or physiological maturity before we stop watering. You can track the progression of the milk line on the kernels to help gauge how far out you are from reaching black layer. I have heard a good rule of thumb is to estimate 7 days for each 25% of milk line progression. For example, if the milk line is 50% of the way through the kernel you can estimate black layer is about 14 days away.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Harvest aids and late season weed control. With the erratic rainfall that we have had across the state, I have seen areas where PRE herbicides have not performed well and vice versa. If you plan to make harvest aid applications follow the label and be mindful of any pre harvest intervals that you may have for the specific product you plan to use. Talking with Dr. Marshall in the past, &#8220;killing&#8221; the corn with a harvest aid will not speed up dry down or cause the grain to reach a lower moisture content any faster than it would had you not sprayed it.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aflatoxin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In years where corn has experienced heat and drought stress, like much of the 2026 crop in SC has, aflatoxin is always a concern. Things to consider would be keeping irrigated and dryland fields separate if putting into the bin. Pulling aflatoxin samples on sandier fields or fields that you know had more and longer periods of stress. Reach out to crop insurance adjusters now to get a game plan on sampling if you carry a quality policy. Over the past few years, there have been some bottle-neck issues with sampling and the chain of custody for samples going to an approved lab for crop insurance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2026 crop year has been all over the place in South Carolina, from periods of drought to excessive rains, making management decisions has been a challenge.

Much of the state experienced severe drought conditions earlier this season before receiving excessive rainfall and flooding in recent weeks. These weather extremes can have lasting effects on crop performance even after favorable conditions return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For corn, the next two to three weeks represent the most important period for determining yield potential. Adequate soil moisture during silking and early grain fill is essential for successful pollination and kernel set. Fields that endured prolonged drought may have restricted root systems and reduced plant height, while saturated soils can contribute to nitrogen loss, root stress, and increased disease pressure. During this time of tassel\/silking corn is using about 0.3 inches of water per day OR 2.1 inches of water per week. Where irrigation is available we need to try to meet the water use demand on corn to maintain yield potential. Growers should continue scouting for nutrient deficiencies, stalk health concerns, and foliar diseases, particularly where standing water occurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For soybeans, timely planting remains important, but field conditions should dictate when to plant. Saturated soils can reduce emergence, increase seedling disease risk, and contribute to uneven stands. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we move into summer, the focus should remain on protecting yield potential, maintaining crop health, and monitoring fields closely. Something to consider on corn is to scout for stinkbugs especially where small grain fields are drying down or being harvested in adjacent or nearby fields. If a foliar fungicide is going to be applied, incorporating an insecticide where stinkbugs are above threshold may be beneficial.  While recent rainfall has relieved drought stress in many areas, the combination of drought followed by flooding may result in variability within fields that will require careful management throughout the remainder of the season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As South Carolina corn enters the critical tasseling and pollination period while soybean planting continues, growers are managing one of the more challenging weather years in recent memory.

Knowing which nematode species you have and the levels at which they occur in the field can drastically change your management strategy. Remember, once you have planted and closed the furrow, your options for controlling nematodes basically end. Common nematode management tactics include crop rotation to a non-host crop, use of resistant varieties, or the use of at-plant nematicides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To pull a nematode sample, pull soil cores similar to a fertility sample from 6-8 inches deep. If possible, try to sample near the previous crop&#8217;s row or root residue. Put the samples in a plastic (Ziploc) bag to prevent them from drying out, and keep them in the shade. Get them to your local Extension agent as soon as possible; they will then send them to the nematode lab in Blackville.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Clemson Extension does have a John Deere Gator with an automatic soil sampler that agents have access to if assistance is needed for pulling samples.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you have any questions, please contact your local Extension Agent.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now is a great time to pull nematode samples if you have not already done so.

I have not heard any reports of temperatures dropping to 28 F or below yet, but Northern SC could very well have seen those temps. If you think your area experienced sub-freezing temperatures and you have corn seed in the ground or corn that has emerged, wait 5-7 days after freezing weather to assess corn\u00a0stands and mortality. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are scouting immediately after the freeze event, you may not see visual damage or injury; it will take some time for the plants to show visual symptoms. After the 5-7 days of waiting, you should then be able to tell if the\u00a0corn\u00a0will recover. This would mean you would be seeing new green growth in the whorl of the young plants. If you are\u00a0<strong><u>not<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0seeing new green growth in the whorls by this point (5-7 days after the freezing temperatures), the plants may be dead, and\u00a0replanting may be warranted at that point.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Based on data I have reviewed from other universities, if\u00a0corn\u00a0is recovering,\u00a0we should <strong><em>not<\/em><\/strong> see a yield loss associated with the freeze injury experienced by the young plants, even if all above-ground foliage was killed off. If there is a particular field or area that experienced lower temperatures and plant death occurred, I would encourage you to scout the entire field and evaluate the surviving stands to determine if a total replant of the field is needed or if spot replanting could be done.\u00a0There are exceptions: &#8220;buggy-whipped&#8221; seedlings with green whorls may struggle or fail to unfold, causing severe stunting. In those situations, a replant may be warranted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have had questions about whether we should apply irrigation to young, injured\u00a0corn. My recommendation is to\u00a0apply irrigation only on an as need basis\u00a0(For example, apply water if the soil profile and rooting zone are extremely dry, and plants are stressing, or extreme sand blasting of\u00a0corn\u00a0is occurring). At this growth stage,\u00a0corn\u00a0water use demand is\u00a0<strong><u>very low (0.03 to 0.09 inches of water per day<\/u><\/strong>).\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Below is a picture I took of a\u00a0corn\u00a0plant from Edisto REC showing injury, but a recovering whorl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As always, if you need help evaluating stands or scouting for injury\/damage, please contact your local Extension agent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/image-768x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-641\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/image-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/image-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/image-113x150.png 113w, https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/image.png 960w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As many of you know, temperatures across the state did drop below freezing last night (3\/16) and will again tonight (3\/17).

Considerations for Plant 2026 and Cold Temps in the Forecast"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plant 2026 is officially underway. Some farmers have already begun planting corn, while others are waiting until later dates to hedge against cold or frost. This is very much a risk\/reward scenario, where we typically see higher yields from early planting, though this corn is more vulnerable to a late freeze or frost.  No year is ever a good year for replanting; with current markets, inflated input costs, narrow profit margins, and very limited seed supply, avoiding a replant situation in 2026 should be everyone&#8217;s top priority when deciding when to plant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking ahead, the 10-day forecast shows some low temperatures near freezing next week. As of today, 3\/12, we have forecasted low temperatures (32-30F) on Monday (3\/16) and Tuesday (3\/17) nights. \u00a0With these temperatures, any\u00a0<strong><u>seed planted within the 24 to 36 hours<\/u><\/strong> up to the cool temps\u00a0could have the possibility of experiencing chilling injury when imbibition of water takes place. The soil temperature at planting depth will highly influence the fate of any seed germinating. Again, if soil temperatures do get cold enough (&lt; 40 F) to cause injury, symptoms will likely result in swollen kernels that do not germinate or no radicle root or coleoptile growth after germination of the seed occurs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If injury occurs&nbsp;<strong><u>after germination<\/u><\/strong>&nbsp;symptoms may include stunting, root death, and poor stands across the field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For\u00a0<strong><u>corn\u00a0that was planted and has already emerged<\/u><\/strong>, injury can range from minor leaf injury to complete plant death, depending on how cold it gets. Fortunately for\u00a0corn, the growing point remains below the soil surface until approximately V5 (~12 inches tall). With that being said,\u00a0corn\u00a0can withstand some\u00a0frost\u00a0early in its development and be okay. Unless we have a killing\u00a0frost and temperatures get to approximately\u00a028 F or lower for a few hours,\u00a0corn\u00a0that has already emerged and is up should be okay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From past experience, things really start to get bad if we get to 28F and\/or below for several hours. I hope that we will avoid that next week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A few years ago, I did a trial during some cold weather we had during planting. Below is a summary of what we saw. The take-home message is that it all depends on how cold the seed gets in the soil, which in turn depends on the ambient temperature and the duration of the cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/Planting-Corn-Around-Freezing-Temperatures.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Planting Corn Around Freezing Temperatures.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-c2af9c8c-abdf-4015-9607-90d9dfa7b5a2\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/Planting-Corn-Around-Freezing-Temperatures.pdf\">Planting Corn Around Freezing Temperatures<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.clemson.edu\/sccrops\/files\/2026\/03\/Planting-Corn-Around-Freezing-Temperatures.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-c2af9c8c-abdf-4015-9607-90d9dfa7b5a2\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Plant 2026 is officially underway.
