![]() ![]() These storms resulted in “flattened” corn from lodging/leaning in addition to bent and snapped plants. Prior to storms July 8-9, plants were nearing tassel, a critical time for photosynthesis and pollination. Storm Prediction Center preliminary storm report data for Jshowing ‘the long track event’ from South Dakota through the Sandhills, central Nebraska, as well as points to the south.ĭata from July 2-13 are summarized in Table 1.

In the worst case situation, yield reduction from greensnap (below ear) may range up to a 1:1 percent broken:yield loss.Research found lodged plants had yield reductions of 2-6% (V10-12 stage), 5-15% (V13-15 stage), and 12-31% (V17 and after stages).High winds caused lodging, pinching, snapping of plants prior to pollination in July 2020. ![]()
