What should you look for when scouting corn at R5 (grain fill)?🔍🌽 With many fields now at this stage, it’s a critical time to assess crop health and yield potential. 🌽 Here, our Senior Research Associate, Betsy Bower, shares her insights!! #TheKernelLab #PurdueCornAgronomy
Two weeks ago, students from across Indiana joined the State High School Crop Scouting Competition 🌱. The Kernel Lab 🌽 hosted the Corn Growth & Development station, sharing agronomy in the field with future ag leaders. #FutureAgLeaders #TheKernelLab #PurdueCornAgronomy
We were glad to host Emily Beeman, PhD Candidate at the University of Pennsylvania, as part of the #IoT4Ag project 🌱🔋. Together we began a buried battery study to see how batteries behave in soil over the next year. Excited to see the results! #TheKernelLab #IoT4Ag
This week at the SEPAC Field Day, our students @erickoliva95 and @nzapata053 presented on short stature corn hybrid and the use of biologicals in corn production. Field Days connect students, researchers, and growers. We’re glad The Kernel Lab was part of it! 💡🤝
🚨 Visiting Scholar Opportunity! 🚨 The Kernel Lab is looking for a motivated student to join as a Visiting Scholar. 📅 Apply by Sept 1, 2025 🔗 Scan the QR code on the flyer to fill out the application form #TheKernelLab #PurdueCornAgronomy #ResearchOpportunity
Dr. Dan Quinn (@PurdueCorn) presented “Management Practices of High Yield Corn: An Indiana, USA Perspective” at the Escola Superior de Agricultura Luiz de Queiroz, University of São Paulo in Brazil. 🇧🇷 We’re proud to see #TheKernelLab’s research shared internationally! 🌍
Agriculture is moving from uniform nitrogen (N) management toward more site-specific and digitally informed strategies. A USDA-NRCS project in Indiana shows both the promise of sensors & imagery and the challenges to adoption. 👉 Full article: incornandsoy.org/sensors-data-i…

At the PPAC Field Day, Dr. Dan Quinn(@PurdueCorn) discussed potassium’s (K) critical role in Indiana soils. Without enough K, corn shows little to no nitrogen response. With adequate K, nitrogen moves efficiently, boosting yield and nutrient use efficiency. #NutrientManagement
🌱 New from the Kernel Lab! Just published: Cereal rye cover crops benefit the environment, but corn establishment can be challenging. Our study shows aftermarket closing wheels improve emergence & yield in rye systems.🌽 Read more👉doi.org/10.1002/cft2.7… #TheKernelLab
We are excited to launch this page and bring you along as we explore corn agronomy through research, extension, and student-driven innovation.🌽 Follow us for: ✅ Research-based insights across Indiana ✅ Collaboration with growers and industry partners #TheKernelLab #PurdueAg
