Temple takes a look at the difference between two fields with two different approaches to residue breakdown. He has some unanswered questions to ask you.

Temple and Chad check check on the residue breakdown in 2 fields: One with a ResidueRX application and one without. Is there a difference?

When you deliver a 345 bpa yield in the 2022 NCGA Yield Contest, you end up with a lot of residue. Temple Rhodes talks about the program he uses to reduce residue and the side-by-side comparison he is conducting this year.

After playing at home last season, Temple is excited to be in the 2023 Wheat Wager with the XtremeAg guys. He's got his sights set on taking down one of the XtremeAg guys in particular, and he's got a good reason. In addition to the trash talk, he also talks in depth about his wheat growing program.

Chad takes a look at the relationship between uneven residue distribution and emergence in his wheat crop.

Twice this season — in spring and during summer — we checked in with Garrett Land & Cattle Agronomist, Mike Evans about residue problems on some of their fields. This time we hear from Mike as well as Kelly Garrett with harvest results.

What happens when you plant beans in a no-till environment and then the wind blows piles of residue on top of the furrow? You have a germination problem. Mike Evans from Integrated Ag Solutions talks about what their plan is to prevent the same thing from happening again next spring.

Temple has a heavy residue issue that if left unchecked will interfere with planter performance, emergence and stand next spring. Here is what he plans to do about it.
