2023 wheat had some up & downs! The Panhandle saw an unusual amount of Scab. We've seen repercussions of the pathogen in 2024, & we might see it again if it stays rainy. Check out our Crop Watch article to learn more! cropwatch.unl.edu/2024/uncom…

I'm thankful for these three, Jeff Noel, @larry_flohr, and @huskerwheatemer and the mentorship I've received from them in my first years leading the UNL Small Grains program. Congrats your retirements and looking forward to continuing to working with you in other ways!

Backstage of Field Day preparations. Three days in a row driving to the variety trials sites and for sure the last site would be the hottest, right? Box Butte County, Nebraska.

Grateful for a vaccine that allowed us to be together for the 1st time in ~2 yrs. Even more grateful for the research & wheat breeding ideas that came out of our convos! Check back this fall to see cool collab studies in the field! @AC_Easterly @Wheat_MaryG #WomenInPlantBreeding

We mourn the loss this week of Lisa Jasa, the driving force behind for nearly 30 years, to pancreatic cancer. Lisa’s impact on NE ag, extension outreach, and her colleagues is undeniable. May we never forget the example she set for us. bit.ly/34f7M06 via @UNL_PSEP
