On this episode, University of Illinois agronomist Nick Seiter returns to go deeper on the issue of corn rootworm. Also, Agrigold agronomist Nick Frederking provides some tips for scouting for tar spot in corn plants. Also this week, we discuss the latest farm bill developments, new Federal Milk Marketing Orders, and a May decline in U.S. milk production. Also, the plan for reintroducing grizzly bears in Washington state isn’t sitting well with farmers. In our “Meat Monitor” segment, May was a strong month for U.S. red meat exports, and in “Bushels and Cents,” Ray Bohacz talks radiator inspections. The episode also features the music of Bobby Mackey.
