My biggest concern is that if there is a clean sweep by Democrats of the House, Senate and Presidency in 2028, they will:

1. Make DC and Puerto Rico states to gain a strong majority in the Senate.

2. Open the borders and legalize everyone living in America illegally to cement a permanent majority.

3. Increase the size of the Supreme Court to gain an immediate majority.

This would result in America becoming a permanent one-party state and the end of democracy in any meaningful sense of the word.

All that is needed to ensure this doesn’t happen is 51 Republican senators in 2029. That is why you should vote for Republican senators this election. Other reasons are irrelevant compared to this one.

We test the best corn hybrids in fields all across the state.

This provides impartial data to help select hybrids and enhance profit.

Thanks to all the growers, eight participating seed companies, and Extension agents who make this happen.

Cover crop seed doesn’t have to be confusing. There are basically three types of species that serve various roles.

✔️Cereal grains stabilize soil
✔️ Legumes fix nitrogen
✔️ Brassicas produce tubers

A key is to use a suitable legume. Berseem or Persian clover thrive in wet soil.

Areas of the north Delta corn crop were due after being wrecked by greensnap last year, and it definitely came through.

This outstanding hybrid plot was grown with irrigation by David Taylor near Sledge.

Thanks to David, eight participating seed companies and all involved. 🌽

It is a bit ironic that our most productive plots were often in dryland fields. Excessive moisture can be stressful also.

This fantastic corn hybrid plot was grown near Como by David Taylor.

Thanks to David, Brent, eight participating seed companies and all involved.

Dryland corn produced well in central Mississippi this summer.

These corn hybrid plots were grown near Edwards by Danny Mashburn, and at the Brown Loam Experiment Station by Tyler Soignier.

Thanks to Danny, Kyle, Tyler, eight participating seed companies and all involved.

🌽

Corn generally produced solid yields in dryland fields around Mississippi.

These hybrid plots were grown by Stone Family Farms near Mantee and Cecil Ferrell near West Point.

Thanks to Sam, Cecil, eight participating seed companies and all involved.

Corn yields were tested at two planting rates in this dryland plot. Hybrids were grown at 30K and 36K per acre.

Although rain was plentiful in June, drought stress stepped up late.

Thanks to Tony, Maurice, Charlie, Josh, 8 participating seed companies and all involved. 🌽

Field trials like this provide valuable insight into how hybrids perform across growing conditions. 🌽 Take a look at the 2026 MSU Corn Hybrid Demonstration results, including DEKALB® hybrids in the trial.

Delta corn yields have been very consistent.

HopeSo Farms hosted another impressive Corn Hybrid Demo plot grown near Inverness.

Thanks to Will, Alex, eight participating seed companies and everyone involved.

Corn is producing well in the North Delta also.

This irrigated Corn Hybrid Demo plot was grown in Coahoma county near Lyon.

Thanks to Brian, Jay, eight participating seed companies and all involved.

🌽#mscorn #MSUext #mscrops

This is a very unique and extraordinary corn production system. It was planted shortly following a grazed wheat crop and grown in rainfed conditions near Natchez.

Thanks to Guedon Farms, eight participating seed companies and all involved.

We have some fine corn being harvested in the Blackland Prairie. This plot was grown under a center pivot in Noxubee county.

Thanks to Chad, Josh, eight participating seed companies and everyone involved.

🌽#mscorn #MSUext #mscrops

The Blackland Prairie region is producing some strong dryland corn.

This MSU Corn Hybrid Demo plot was grown near Prairie Point.

Thanks to Ivan, Josh, eight participating seed companies and all involved.

This is definitely going to be the year we find out just how much water is too much. These two fields are just across the road from each other, yet show two very different stories. We’re seeing a lot of low spots with drowned-out pockets in fields across Illinois today, as well This is McLean County, IL. #pftour26

Growers are producing great corn in the Delta. This MSU Corn Hybrid Demo plot was grown near Cary by Moore Company.

Thanks to Jeffry and his crew, eight participating seed companies and everyone involved.

Corn harvest is progressing quickly and yields are strong at Triple Run Farms.

We greatly appreciate their willingness to better assess hybrids on diverse Delta soils.

Thanks to Adron, Alex, eight participating seed companies and all involved.

Test stalk integrity using the pinch test. Prioritize harvest for that field if 10%+ stalk rot.

Ask local Extension for more info.

North Farm Field Day—where research meets outreach 🌱 Participants traveled across the R.R. Foil Plant Science Research Center (North Farm) to hear about crop management practices for cotton, corn, soybeans and peanuts.

Corn harvest is progressing quickly and yields are strong at Triple Run Farms.

We greatly appreciate their willingness to better assess hybrids on diverse Delta soils.
