Hey y'all, this is Chad Henderson with Extreme Ag and we just kind of give an update though. This is some of our irrigated corn,
00:00:05
um, that we're looking at. This field has had a urea shot on it, and that's something we don't usually do that much of,
00:00:12
but if you'll look at how wet it is out here now, we haven't run the pivot. We run it early in the year.
00:00:18
The rut you see to put a little fertility down, but we haven't run it since. So we've been getting ample rainfalls
00:00:24
to excessive type rainfalls. If you look at my wheat crop, you'll understand that. But this is kind of where we're at.
00:00:30
We come in here and we put some urea on it late because it was right at tassel, right pre tassel, and then some after tassel.
00:00:37
And that was just to get in the right form of nitrate to get it up through the plant. So we looked at ammonia form
00:00:44
and that's where we was trying to head toward with this. This also had a fungicide application on it, pret tassel.
00:00:51
And then what we'll do is we wait till these silks turn brown and then we come back with a pretty good load to put under it
00:00:57
after that in brown silk to where we can put the fertility down. We don't like to put any fertility down while this thing's
00:01:04
pollinating, it's such a time in the plant to where you've worked so hard all the way through this plant's lifecycle to all
00:01:11
of a sudden put fertility down when it's some mother nature type stuff going on here is just, to me, it's, it's,
00:01:17
the risk is not worth the reward. So we'll do one early, um, B 10, B12 with a PGR with boron, sugars, fertility, and fungicide.
00:01:28
That'll get us over into the brown silk then, and we make another fungicide pass and then we'll put on some more fertility
00:01:35
for late season Greenfield. Remember guys, when we're at brown silk, we're still way, there's still a lot of game left.
00:01:42
You know, we can still influence weight and remember, we don't sell bushels. We sell weight, which makes bushels.
00:01:48
So we're still trying to influence that part of it. So, you know, talk to some people your agronomy, check out the guys at Extreme Mag.
00:01:55
Uh, give us a call. I ain't saying we could fix your program by no means, but we'll definitely talk about the things
00:02:01
we've tried and the things we've done to influence weight, the things we've tried and the things we've done
00:02:07
that influence the wrong way. We do that too, so we make a lot of mistakes out here. But that's one that, that we try not
