Current GDUs

• When to take silage?
• What is the impact of early frost?
• Beans are at R6, so we should be past aphid issues
• Aphids can take up to 15 bushels in yield, with heavy infestations.
• Alfalfa: all that needs to be done in September is fertilize. Don’t cut it, or it’ll be a problem overwintering.
