Damaged beans, spray decisions, and late double-crop options | Wheat Pete's Word, June 24, 2026

What a season so far! From hail, flooding, and saturated soils to herbicide injury and drone application debates, there’s no shortage of agronomy topics to tackle this week on Wheat Pete's Word. Your host Peter "Wheat Pete" Johnson covers everything from edible bean herbicide damage and fungicide application by drone to yellow soybeans, volunteer crops, Hessian fly, and the ongoing challenge of getting timely weed control during a wet growing season. There’s plenty of practical crop management discussion packed into this episode, along with reminders that sometimes ugly crops recover better than expected.
