Hey, guys. Heath Husenket here. Checking in on our Agrison Infinity plot. And if you can recall from the last videos, we
00:00:07
actually put this in our Y-drop. We meant to have it go in furrow, but with how wet it's been, we ended up logistically
00:00:15
having to do it in Y-drop. But whenever we put that in our Y-drop, we also cut back on 30 units of nitrogen in the form of UAN
00:00:23
32. And I was actually out here the other day looking at these, and I decided not to shoot this video because I thought it might've been a little too
00:00:30
biased, so I came up here to do it again. Well, I did the same thing, so it turns out I wasn't being biased. But these are the ears from where we cut nitrogen
00:00:39
back in a wet year and added Agrison Infinity, Infinity from Agrison, to our Y-drop pass. And we cut
00:00:49
nitrogen in a wet year. So this is a 20. These are 18s. Really good-looking ears. This is where we had 30 units more of nitrogen, and I think this
00:01:00
one's probably an anomaly, but I don't think you can tell from the camera. This one is an 18. The rest of these are 16s.
00:01:08
And don't get me wrong, these are some really good-looking ears. But what really blew me away was in the wet year, as
00:01:15
we've been wet, I'm sure we had some nitrogen loss. Less nitrogen in the tank with Infinity, to me, produced a healthier plant because it wanted to put out more a round.
00:01:28
So I thought that was really fascinating. I don't know how it'll end up in yield. Our seed rep for this particular seed variety or
00:01:37
hybrid, excuse me, came out and did a yield check. Of course, this one yield checked higher. They used the same kernels per bushel.
00:01:44
And I know that this one will probably have a heavier kernels per bushel just because there's less a round and it's filling in more.
00:01:50
But still, I thought it was really interesting to see the difference in these two. Again, we have been so wet here in East Central Illinois, and it just
00:02:03
really blew my mind. Like I said, this is take two because I thought I was being a little biased. But I'm really excited to get in here.
00:02:09
And just to remind you guys, this has 150 pounds of N applied to it total. In this wet year, I never would've thought I would've saw this where I put on more
00:02:19
nitrogen. Still good-looking ears, but I didn't have Infinity in the tank, and less kernels a round. So,
00:02:27
I don't know. It's going to be really interesting to see. I'm really excited to get the combines in here because I think it's going to be
00:02:32
really good corn. But just some fascinating stuff here and wanted to keep you guys updated. 00:02:37.700 --> 00:02:38.000
