00:00:00 Johnny Rell, the extreme ag. You know, farmers are always looking for ways to be faster in the field. 00:00:05 You know, stop less, do more when you do stop, you know, fill up faster. That's one of the biggest things we all face is you know, 00:00:11 when you start playing with the infer program and you're wanting to put all these different products in, and not only does it cost a lot to do that, 00:00:16 but it takes time to mix and get everything just like you want. And then you also have some mixing, uh, issues sometimes 00:00:22 with some of the stuff we put out. You know, we all hear Chad and they'll talk about they don't, they did this, 00:00:27 they locked up their planter and all that. You're gonna push it to the limits. Well what I've learned is, is you know, 00:00:31 there's things I want in first still, but there's also a lot of things you can get in a pale. And so Agritech has a pale out. 00:00:38 Several other companies have pals out. But one reason I really do like using Agritech Pale is because it's got Nutri charge in it. 00:00:44 We've all talked about Nutri Charge for years. It's been a standard practice on our farm for several years now. 00:00:49 This is one way I can get Nutri charge and not have to actually mix it. Infer before I go to the fill, it's in the pale, 00:00:54 it goes directly on the seed mixes and it gives you the rate of nutri charge you need in fur. And so that's a big deal for us. 'cause it speeds up. 00:01:02 It's one less product we gotta have on the farm, you know, to mix with. It's all mixed in the pale, ready to go. 00:01:07 You got your micronutrients, you got your, you know, your algae base, you know, uh, seed lubricant and you got your nutri charge in there. 00:01:13 So you're ready to go to the field and you don't have to do any mixing. So for us, that's one of the ways we sped up our operation. 00:01:18 We still run in furrow, but we got a lot less products we put out. 00:01:22.055 --> 00:01:23.215
