Monday the 20th saw some major progress at the site! Several new demonstrations were planted, including a seed treatment plot, a row spacing/plant population demo, and a ‘Refuge in the Bag’ concept plot.
In addition, several treatments were infested with fall armyworm (photo below), so we should be seeing some feeding damage soon, along with a good visual demonstration of the protection against this insect that VT3Pro and SmartStax will bring to growers.
We also brought along a big crew to help out with cutting back the rows to make the plots look nice and neat. The new triangle design is really taking shape!
Tyne Morgan also stopped by for a visit, so be on the lookout for some video footage from the show site coming soon.
Special thanks to interns Ben Brown and Genessa Cox along with TDRA’s Stephanie Smith, Brian Hogendorp, and Felipe Zabala for all of the help they provided Monday (photos below).
We’re nowhere near done yet, so stay tuned!
