The Benefits of Applying Biologicals Post-Harvest
Biologicals have emerged in force over the past decade. Do you apply biologicals and if so, when? Chad Henderson discusses his large-scale trials of applying biologicals post - harvest.
Taking The Trash Out and Leaving the Nutrients
In a high yield corn on corn field with a ton of trash, Mike and Vern talk about how they are breaking down the residue and benefits of residue.
Tapping Into The Soil Nutrient Bank
It is no secret that Iowa has great soil. The challenge is getting those nutrients to move from the soil to the plant. Mike and Kelly talk about how they have been able to tap into that soil bank.
