00:00 Hey guys, temple Road from Mc Tree Mag. I'm here with Amy Breck from um, sound. Amy, I've got questions. 00:06 So last year I had tremendous response with Source your product because I believe that in my trials last year, 00:13 the foliar nutrition aided with the source. I felt like that was a, you know, kind of, we talk about this systematic approach all the time. 00:21 Mm-Hmm. And things work together much better. So this year my trial is gonna be just the source product alone without the foliar nutrition 00:30 and then I'm gonna add the foliar nutrition and then that way I have a couple different checks to go through. 00:35 I mean, I, I think that's the nice thing about the product is you can stack it with a couple different things depending 00:38 on what's going on in the field. So I was curious now, uh, with you guys, you know, how much precipitation have you guys had in right now 00:44 and like how is that affecting your decisions when you looking at fo your nutrition in season? We've Had like 30 some inches of rain since January one 00:52 until now it's been wet. And then we had a dry spell and we got a bunch of it planted up. And now we're kind of dodging raindrops right now trying 00:59 to finish up right now. A lot of my thought process this year was, you know, I was going to apply nutrition as I needed it, 01:06 as the plant needed it. And that might be another place where source comes in, you know, 'cause we talk about Dragon phosphorus to the end, 01:13 you know, we always put our phosphorus down up front and I'm trying to drag more to the end because the plant's new needs for phosphorus, 01:20 it's 60% at the end in the, our stages, which, that's where source follows right in. So how much more phosphorus do you think 01:28 I can drag into the plant? Well, I mean with, so with Source it's gonna be 25 pounds of phosphorus, 25 pounds, nitrogen. 01:34 And the nice part is you can go in early veg if you want, right. To give it that boost. Or you can go in at tassel 01:39 as you're going during that rain field time. I think last year when we were, we were messing around with timing. 01:44 You staggered the, uh, the applications A little bit. We did, I had one, um, in vegetative stages. 01:49 I had one in the OR stages and the, the double application is where we had the biggest bonus. 01:54 So maybe that's the, maybe that's something that we, that we trial again this year and we tried in two different situations 02:01 and we try to drag some of that phosphorus all the way to the End. So what are your phosphorus 02:04 levels like in, in your field sir? We're anywhere, I mean, our phosphorus levels are pretty decent. 02:08 We're anywhere around 47 to 57 PP m Okay. Is what we are on our phosphorus. So we're not low, we're not high. 02:16 We're kind of right there in the mid range. 'cause that's where we have to be within our nutrient management 02:20 Practices. And then with source, we're gonna be able to free up 25 pounds and get it to the plant. Yeah. Where, you know, if it's, if it's balanced up 02:25 and it's not plant available, it's just sitting there, it's like a piggy bank. You don't have acid. Well 02:28 It kind of comes back to what we've been talking about all the time. You know, every time that we make an application 02:32 with fertility, we wanna make sure that we are treating that fertility and getting the most out of every ounce of fertility we put out there. 02:39 Especially like this year, this year's gonna be tough on all of us farmers. It's tough times to be in agriculture. 02:44 We have to make every ounce count. It's time to get a little bit outta that piggyback. When We, when we talk to guys, we 02:49 really look at field placement. Look at your fertility program because it's all about ROI, right? 02:52 Yeah. So in situations where you might have be leader on fertility, say you've picked up some newly rented ground, right? 02:57 You're not throwing everything at it, that's where a source can come in and we could help increase yield, right? 03:01 You might have situations where you, you're under high fertility environments and you're really gonna start to tweak it a little bit 03:06 and maybe pull back 25 pounds of nitrogen. Or to your point, like we want to get that phosphorus available to the plant with source. 03:12 The nice part is that you have that flexibility to kind of move things around and you fertility program based on what's going on in the field. 03:17 Well, back to you guys soon. We're gonna let you know how this all works out this year. Again, this Temple Rose and this is Amy Burke. Thanks guys.
