If ready to harvest, I think he is seeding a cover. We did more of that here last week.

If ready to harvest why would that be needed unless field was too full of big weeds to let harvest start?

Cover crop seeding has become popular.

Can't think of a reason to spray corn at drydown, you won't make it dry faster, there is no insect or fungus you could affect much at that point in time......
