Don delivered greetings from St. Paul area Synod and US Ag.Isnstitute Advisory Committee. Done also explain the important of the yield data we are expecting to take from the demo plot.
Went through the handouts
• 5th Visit handout
• Yield recording sheet
• Rain record sheets to know the amount of rain received during this season
Demonstrations
We were supposed to demonstrate how to measure the 10M row of corn and take the yield data. They harvested corn before we visited them. Then we told them to record the total yield of corn. Beans were still on the plot and we explained to them how to measure 10M row and record the data at the time when they will be harvesting.
Questions
They asked if we are going to provide the with the storage pesticides
We told them that we will provide them with storage pest as soon as possible in order to avoid grain damage by pests
Comments
They said corn yield is not good as last year because they had severe drought this growing season compared to the previous season.
Conclusion
We wanted them to take all the required data from corn and beans and record them on the paper sheet we provided.
