00:00 I'm in the, uh, second FMC plot. We had one when we planted early, you know, when we should have been planting 00:06 that got destroyed by the rain. So we come back and replanted, you know, some fields. And with that, we were able to, uh, you know, to, 00:12 to go ahead and continue our FMC plot. So this field has the a at eight ounces and 6.9 ounces of Ellevest on it. 00:20 And I know these aren't Chad Henderson ears, this is replant. I understand that. But I think we've got a pretty 00:25 respectable crop based on, you know, where we started and where we're at today. So, disease control was excellent. 00:32 I'll just pull a leaf off here. You can see, you know, we've got a little bit of common rust on here. 00:37 No southern rust. This is probably as clean a corn as we get, you know, in, in this area. 00:43 So, really excited about the industrial. It's got three modes of action. It's done really well in the past years for us, 00:50 and also the Ellevest just to take out any insects that that might have been in here. So we're, we're pretty jacked up about what we see. 00:57 This is not gonna be a NCA GA type plot, but I think it might accidentally pay the bills before it's over with. 01:04 So this corn's actually at black layers, so we're only probably a couple weeks away from cutting it. If you look at these leaves, so you're, you're getting a lot 01:12 of, you know, dye and dry type, you know, process here. But there's no southern rust here, no gray leaf spot, which we mainly deal with southern rust here. 01:22 So there's some common rust on this, on this ear. But as far as southern rust, it's basically non-existent. So, you know that three modes 01:30 of action I think's working pretty good down here in the delta. And we'll see what happens from here.
