Stalk rot normal in Iowa corn fields this fall
Iowa State University extension crop disease specialist Robert Nyvall says stalk rot incidence this fall is about normal, with some western and northern fields showing substantial losses. Fungi decompose dead residue and enter through roots or insect wounds, weakening stalks and risking harvest failure. Early harvesting advised for fields with many early ripening plants.
