Over the next 30 days normal to above-normal temperatures will dominate the Corn Belt except for cooler conditions in the northwestern corner. Rainfall will be normal to higher than normal. During the next weeks precipitation will be higher than normal for most of Corn Belt. Temperatures will be above normal in week one and normal in week two.
Northern Leaf Blight Risk Summary
The risk of northern corn leaf blight is moderate or high east of the Missouri River.
Next two-week risk interpretation
Weather conditions east of the Missouri River are moderately favorable to highly favorable for NCLB during the next two weeks. In at-risk areas treat fields that have not reached dent stage and disease lesions are observed on the ear leaf or higher. Late-planted corn is at higher risk than indicated on the map.
