A fresh face for the north soil pit! Big thank you to Jeff from the Ag Engineering & Agronomy Farm for coming out to clean up and reshape the pit in preparation for next week’s AGRON 2790 undergraduate class. #IowaAg #ISUExtension #SoilScience
Following last week’s hail simulation, @ag_risk returned to FEEL yesterday to review crop damage. Despite damp conditions, it was a great day to evaluate how hail impacts corn and soybeans! #IowaAg #ISUExtension #NationalCropInsuranceServices
Hands-on learning starts in the field! 🌽 National Crop Insurance Services (NCIS) used the FEEL hail machine today to create realistic hail damage for next week's training event.
A huge thank you to @HyVeeBoone for donating the ice and @ISUdining for providing the ice cooler!
There's never a dull day at FEEL! From growing alfalfa and scouting soybeans to corn pollination and assessing flood impacts, our research plots are telling the story of the 2026 growing season. 🌱🌽 #IowaAg #ISUExtension

Some interesting observations in the FEEL plots this week! 🌽 We're seeing goosenecking in one corn plot while neighboring plots remain upright. Was it wind, saturated soils, hybrid differences, or something else? #ISUExtension #IowaAg
AGRON 5940 is gearing up for three exciting days of hands-on learning at FEEL and other Iowa State research farms! We're excited to welcome the group to Ames for a week of exploring agricultural research and innovation. 🌽 #ISUExtension #IowaAg
Hay Day brought farmers and industry together for a day of learning about alfalfa stand management, common field pests, and how drones can support agricultural operations. Thank you to our speakers, @ErinHodgson_ISU, Luke & Doug with @ISUDigitalAg, and Shelby Gruss! #ISUExtension
The old saying holds true - the corn is knee high by the Fourth of July! 🌽Happy Independence Day from everyone at FEEL and Happy 250th Birthday, America! 🇺🇸 #IowaAg #ISUExtension #FourthofJuly
Pumpkins are planted, sunflowers are growing, plots are thriving, and the prairie is putting on a show. Summer is in full swing at FEEL! 🌻🎃🌾 #ISUExtension #IowaAg #FieldResearch #Prairie
Something bright is growing at FEEL! 🌻 We planted our sunflower plot and are excited to watch it take shape over the coming weeks. Stay tuned for plenty of sunny updates! #ISUExtension #IowaAg #Sunflowers
