The late spring nitrogen test (LSNT) can be useful to confirm nitrogen (N) levels or nitrogen needs. Fields that have had manure with questionable N content, or fields where N rates were less than planned may be good candidates for the LSNT. Corn Rootworm hatch. Warm early season soil temps raised questions on the date of corn rootworm hatch. However, since soil temps in April and May were more normal, rootworm hatch will be about normal - or about June 6. Therefore corn rootworm damage is not expected to be any less or more than previous years.
