Subject: Submerged corn


We received 10.5" of rain yesterday and I've got 25 ac of 5-6 ft corn in 18" of standing water. All this water must run through an old 10" tile line plus there is more rain predicted so I would guess it will be under water for at least a week. How long can the corn tolerate standing water? I've got smaller areas of just emerged double crop beans under water too. How will these make out? Luckily we've got sandy soils and most fields drain well so the flooding is isolated.
