Johnny Verell at Stream Ag. I'm out here today with Tommy Roach. We're out here at Kevin Matthews Field A
00:00:05
and you know, I was walking around, I asked Tommy, I said, Tommy, how many field days have you been to this year?
00:00:09
Five with y'all and two other ones. So seven, seven. He said seven field days, you know, and I was asking, I said, what's the most common nutrient
00:00:15
you always see deficient? So I sound like a broken record. But most of the time you're gonna see K deficiency.
00:00:24
Most of the time you're gonna see zinc deficiency, maybe manganese, maybe boron. But they all have something in common.
00:00:33
And you know, most people deal with K up front. Yep. They throw out dry KCL think that's gonna take care of the problem.
00:00:41
You especially get down south and we talked to this about your field day two days ago, even a lot of people will apply in season broadcast
00:00:50
dry KCL to take care of K needs in the season. Yeah. They ain't gonna do no good. No. Never be available. Now we can talk about it planning for next year
00:01:01
'cause you're not going to put uh, broadcast K right now, but next year don't even try that
00:01:06
because you're not gonna get any benefit of doing that. You've got to use something that is available soluble, can help balance nutrition that,
00:01:16
that we always see problems with And get it in the plant that's right when we need it. And that's the big thing I've learned this year, working
00:01:21
with you on a few things, is what products we're able to put out there to address those needs throughout the season.
00:01:27
Especially late season like we're getting into here with Kevin And, and I would say this planning for next year, uh,
00:01:34
something that people, a trap they fall into is target a single nutrient. The third law of physics says if you do something over here,
00:01:43
you're gonna have a reaction over there. So you've got to take a balanced nutrition approach and not just focus on one thing,
00:01:50
but look at a, a holistic approach to take care of plant nutrition in that and apply soluble available nutrition.
00:01:59
And that's what I've been working with Tommy with back home. He was at my field day a couple days ago.
00:02:03
He built me a program start to finish even doing some late season y dropping late season foliar.
00:02:08
And so we're gonna see how it works. The tissue samples are coming back a lot better than they normally do.
00:02:12
We just need a little rainfall back home. Kevin's got mud here. It's kind of disheartening to go from dust.
00:02:16
Oh yeah. But, but that's, we can't control that. But we can control some of these nutrients we're Putting out. And even, even
00:02:21
right now, 'cause we've had this conversation this morning, there's still time to influence the weight of that kernel
00:02:29
or, or have the weight of that bean that's over there. So apply, look at your, look at your K levels, look at your micro levels.
00:02:37
'cause zinc, boron, manganese, copper, late season. Those are what? Boost kernel weight pod. Pod size. Well, Kevin's got some great looking corn here.
00:02:46
He is. Got some awesome looking soybeans. Be interested in how they go out and how they turn out this year for 'em. We
00:02:51
Don't need any hurricanes. No hurricanes last year. I think y'all are in a hurricane right now. They had, we were doing in a tropical storm right now.
