Sulfur application methods, placement and timing depend on soil conditions in each field.
Potassium (K) regulates water loss and maintains turgor pressure. Identify K-deficiency symptoms in corn and soybeans before drought damages your yield.
Record rain has flooded Midwest streets and snarled Mississippi River traffic, crucial to delivering inputs that farmers need and a major artery in helping them ship products.
Agricultural groups challenge California weed-killer warning
This NH3 calculator that will help you determine if fall application is right for you.
Commodity prices have been challenging, but according to recent projections they likely won’t get any worse.
“You invest a lot of time studying inputs like seed and chemicals, but sometimes not in drying and storage,” says Kenneth Hellevang, North Dakota State Extension agricultural engineer and professor. “It makes sense to invest as much or more time in storage to make sure you can maintain the grain we worked hard to produce.”
By partnering with Planet, aerospace and data analytics company, Farmers Edge will offer satellite images more frequently—every one to three days.
Nutrient management is costly, especially if the weather makes it hard to fully utilize things like nitrogen.
By the time mid-August rolls around, corn growers often think it’s too late in the season to adjust their crop’s nutrient program. But that’s not at all the case according to John Leif, AgroLiquid Field Agronomy Manager. Leif says as he’s evaluated corn throughout the Midwest this season he’s seen the results of huge moisture differences from area to area, with some being too dry while others are too wet. He believes farmers on both sides of the weather extremes are likely to have crops that need additional nitrogen, potassium and sulfur.
