Weather extremes are having a unique effect on soybeans in Minnesota.
University of Minnesota Extension soybean agronomist Seth Naeve says a very wet and cool spring gave way to extended dryness throughout June.
“We just have very different symptomology and stuff going on in the fields than we normally see because it is quite unusual to have a June where we have so little rain.”
He tells Brownfield one of the oddest results is iron deficiency chlorosis expanding to areas where it’s rarely seen.
