Well as you drive by my fields you might not want to follow my advise, not sure I do thsat great a job. :)
You need more N. You gotta pick up 40 lbs extra N to get the same yield. The rotting cornstalks will use up about that much N, the corn will miss it.
I assume you got the cornstalks worked under last fall. Corn into cornstalks does not work well in out climate/soils. Corn into worked ground works pretty good. I play with that little 3 acre field by my driveway, it hasn't been plowed in 6-7 years, corn on corn. I just want to see how it works out. Most years actually pretty good, but every few years you can really tell, coulda used drier warmer soils.... Works pretty good in plowed ground tho.
I've not had much trouble with bugs. Surprising, I typically don't bother with much stacked traits.
Mostly, find a way to add another 40 lbs of N and it should be good for you.
