Clint freeze the calibrated agronomy, doing a little check back in on a field that, uh, we kind of shown this spring where we was planting into some pretty
00:00:07
tall triticale and wheat. Um, we are now at Black Layer and I just kind of wanna report in how this field looks and how it, how it made it through the year.
00:00:16
So we are, as a whole, got a lot of disease coming, but we're still pretty green for being all the way at black layer.
00:00:23
But we've really s this ahead of our herbicide pass, uh, ahead of our side dress pass
00:00:28
and really tried to focus on what was our limiting factor to bring nutritional fitness or to bring plant balance.
00:00:35
And what we're after with plant balance, nutritional fitness is allowing a plant
00:00:41
to communicate effectively within its environmental stresses. Whether that's abiotic, biotic stresses, a plant
00:00:47
that has a higher nutritional fitness, more balance to it can communicate quite well on its own. It can switch from defense mode to growth mode
00:00:55
to reproductive mode. But as a whole, I am very pleased with what we're seeing. Um, this field's got one pass of generic quilt, 14 ounces.
00:01:06
Other than that, it's basically just been following SAP and mineral nutrition. So the goal for me always is to have a green plant, um,
00:01:14
or some green left in it at black layer. And I feel like we've done that. I think we've got great yield
00:01:19
potential for an Old Hill farm. Every once in a while. We got a second year poking out here and there.
00:01:24
So as a whole West Central Illinois I think is gonna be, uh, 00:01:28.205 --> 00:01:28.965
