For areas and fields that experience severe drought stress, stalk rots can be a major issue right before harvest. Stalk rots cause damage and yield loss in many corn fields and, as Pioneer Field Agronomist Matt Montgomery explains, can reduce corn yield by killing the plant before physiological maturity. Every farmer's goal is to keep fields as harvestable as possible. Fields experiencing severe stalk rots should be prioritized for harvest.
