Chad's Agroliquid Trial Plots
Chad Henderson is a student of farming. He is always putting his test acres through rigorous conditions and new applications to see how the crop performs. So, when XtremeAg partner, Agroliquid, stopped by Chad's place to talk about some test plots they wanted him to run this year, well...it was pretty much a no-brainer. Here is what Chad will be looking at this year from Agroliquid.
A Simple Way to Test The 2x2 System Before you hit the Field
Dan comes up with some of his best ideas on rainy days. Today he has enlisted the help of his son to test the connections and flow rates of his planter's fertility system. Better to find a problem in the shop than in the field.
Soil pH at Varying Depths
Last week we had a call with Jason Schley from Next Level Ag in South Dakota. We were looking at some soil samples we pulled a few weeks ago; they ran them through their lab and learned a lot of information, including a few things we hadn’t seen before. One of the questions that came up in that call was “what is our soil pH at varying depths?”
Dan's Homemade Copper Sulfate Solubilizer
In this video, Dan shares a unique way that he developed to solubilize Copper Sulfate before application. He utilizes the homemade method as a way to extend the coverage of his supply of copper sulfate when input prices are high and dry spreading is not feasible.
Soybean Seed Varieties, New Seed Treatments, and Population Strategies
Kelly Garrett talks about the Hefty soybean varieties and maturity levels he is planting this month and the various BASF seed treatments that he is excited to try this year including Obvius Plus disease protection and Flo Rite, a new polymer treatment that aims to increase drop accuracy and improve overall plantability with optimized stand counts. Kelly also talks about key learnings as it relates to soybean populations and managing skips and doubles.
Well Protected and Well Nourished
If you know Matt Miles, then you know that Matt seems to always be struggling with extreme weather conditions. Wet, dry, hot, cold, snow, tornados and hurricanes, Miles Farms has seen it all in their little southeast corner of Arkansas. All the more reason that Matt needs his young corn to be well protected and well nourished when it makes its way out of the ground. Matt is putting together a cocktail of products from Concept Agri-Tek this year that he thinks will be the perfect mix for his crop.
