AMA:
Current total GDD (base 32°F): ~2002.
Next ~15 days forecast: ~1470 additional (median).
Total projected by late April/early May: ~3472 GDD.
Expected stage: late grain fill to dough stage.
Recommended actions: Scout for insects/diseases and prepare for harvest timing. Focus on grain quality.
100% chance of unusually fast advancement (higher totals). Higher risk of rapid development — prepare for earlier decisions on disease management or harvest.

Expected stage: late grain fill to dough stage.
Recommended actions: Scout for insects/diseases and prepare for harvest timing. Focus on grain quality.
100% chance of unusually fast advancement (higher totals). Higher risk of rapid development — prepare for earlier decisions on disease management or harvest.
SPS:
Current total GDD (base 32°F): ~2406.
Next ~15 days forecast: ~1627 additional (median).
Total projected by late April/early May: ~4034 GDD.
Expected stage: late grain fill to dough stage.
Recommended actions: Scout for insects/diseases and prepare for harvest timing. Focus on grain quality.

ICT:
Current total GDD (base 32°F): ~1655.
Next ~15 days forecast: ~1383 additional (median).
Total projected by late April/early May: ~3038 GDD.
Expected stage: mid grain fill (milk to soft dough).
Recommended actions: Monitor for lodging and continued disease pressure. Protect kernel development; avoid stress to maximize test weight.
100% chance of unusually fast advancement (higher totals). Higher risk of rapid development — prepare for earlier decisions on disease management or harvest.
DDC:
Current total GDD (base 32°F): ~1538.
Next ~15 days forecast: ~1372 additional (median).
Total projected by late April/early May: ~2910 GDD.
Expected stage: mid grain fill (milk to soft dough).
Recommended actions: Monitor for lodging and continued disease pressure. Protect kernel development; avoid stress to maximize test weight.
100% chance of unusually fast advancement (higher totals). Higher risk of rapid development — prepare for earlier decisions on disease management or harvest.
GLD:
Current total GDD (base 32°F): ~1355.
Next ~15 days forecast: ~1228 additional (median).
Total projected by late April/early May: ~2583 GDD.
Expected stage: early grain fill (watery ripe to milk stage).
Recommended actions: Focus on soil moisture — this is a high water-use period. Scout for head diseases and insects (aphids, etc.).
92% chance of unusually fast advancement (higher totals). Higher risk of rapid development — prepare for earlier decisions on disease management or harvest.
END:
Current total GDD (base 32°F): ~1855.
