A Season in Decline — Diagnosing a Failing Crop

By Kay Ledbetter

Glenn Carter of Armstrong County knew something was wrong.

In 2023, his corn began browning seemingly overnight despite his irrigation efforts. A seasoned farmer of corn, cotton, sorghum, wheat, hay grazer and alfalfa, Carter had seen drought, pests and disease. But this felt different. He didn’t know why his field was turning brown.

“It looked like my crop was burning up, but I was watering,” Carter said. “I didn’t know who to call at first, but I’ve reached out to the Texas A&M AgriLife Extension Service specialists in Amarillo on multiple issues in the past. They’ve always been there.”
