The Duck Hole
Chad is in his duck hole. Normally it would still be filled with water this time of year. Chad talks about water management with tile.
It Will Stay Like This Until May or June
Chad is working trouble spots on his Alabama acres to make them more "growable." Here is an example of a spot that he can't get into until May or June each year. He has a plan.
Focusing On Early Season Plant Health
Your crops emerged, you have an even stand, and you’re feeling pretty good about things. Now what? Well, now is the time to focus on plant health. What nutrients do your fledgling crops need and when do they need them? How can you tell whether or not your crops are as healthy as they should be? What’s the yield penalty you take for missing cues your crops are giving you about their health?
The guys from XtremeAg share their early season plant health practices at the May 4th webinar.
Drainage AND Subsurface Irrigation Using The Same Pipe?
In Fall of 2021, Miles Farms installed drainage tile on 35 acres as a trial with ADS. Drainage tile isn’t used in the Arkansas Delta where Matt and Layne Miles farm. However, they didn’t stick plastic pipe in the ground just to be different. Matt and Layne explain the early results of their drainage and irrigation install.
HE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT THIS YIELDS
It's the next to last look at Chad's Wheat before one last application for head scab and then harvest. This field has come a long way in the past few years. He explains...
Managing Matt's Sharkey Clay
Matt conducted a drain tile trial last season in an attempt to better manage his Sharkey Clay. He explains how the drain tile led to a 10 bpa increase in his bean crop and how he plans to utilize it to not only take water out, but push it back into the crop as a form of subsurface irrigation.
From Parking Lot To Productive Field
Chad talks about the results of the last season with ADS drain tile, specifically how he took a field that he used to park equipment on and transformed it into one of his more productive yielding fields.
Farming in Quebec With Sam of the North
Sam Coutu wasn’t raised on a farm but he knew he wanted to work in production agriculture. He spent summers at his uncle’s dairy farm in his native Quebec then spent 3 months on a farm in Switzerland as a teenager. Today this first generation farmer operates 1,540 acres of corn, soybeans, and wheat. (Only 2% of the land in Quebec is farm ground!) Listen in and learn about Agriculture north of the St. Lawrence from our newest affiliate “Sam Of The North!”
The Drain Tile Difference
After a few weeks of consistent rain, Chad gets into his wheat field to take a look at the pretty stark difference he sees between the areas with ADS Tile and those without tile.
