Read the full NTSB narrative
The agricultural airplane was substantially damaged during an off airport landing immediately after takeoff when the engine reportedly experienced a partial loss of power by about 200 rpm. The airplane came to rest in a cornfield about 1/2 mile from the runway. Inspection of the engine revealed that the number 1 and 3 spark plugs contained lead deposits and would not fire when under a pressure of 120 psi. The spark plugs were able to fire once they were cleaned.
