Scouting before V8 is helpful to catch limiting nutrients and if mineralization is releasing other vital nutrients. Synthetic N will be the primary N source to meet the high N demand while Pivot is supplementing N to bridge N limitations from lack of soil moisture. #G3#Plant26
Strong roots set the foundation for strong corn 🌽 Pivot Bio agronomist Tyler Johnson shows results from a root dig in Faribault County, MN which highlights PROVEN G3 OS treated corn showing more uniform stand and plant vigor compared to the untreated check. That early advantage can make all the difference.

Planting is finishing up yet weather patterns across the start are vastly different. Some area are dry and some are wet. Growers using Pivot are seeing great results. How is your corn doing? #G3#4R#Plant26
Do you ever consider how your tillage system impacts your N program or early plant emergence? Pivot Bio microbes help promote root growth making it a foundational N source to build a more efficient and resilient N program upon regardless of tillage system. #G3#4R#plant26
@cornguy63@pivotbio What makes it unique is that it feeds each individual plant vs passively sitting there like regular fertilizer. I’ve done 100s of stand counts over the years and P40/G3 have consistently average ~250 plants/A each year.
Even emergence is commonly understood to help maximize yield. Tillage, planter maintenance and gadgets, starters and later planting dates are used to increase stand uniformity. Why not consider a reliable “proven” alternative like Pivot Bio in the future?#Plant26#G3
This is going to be interesting year with a wide range of planting dates and the warm weather followed by abundant rainfall. Growers using Pivot can be assured to have a N source that didn’t get flushed with the rain and will get their plants started right.
I haven’t done my best to explain what Pivot Bio’s microbes do for small grains. There is a lot of competition w/ wheat and Pivot microbes supply N to each plant. This builds field uniformity and a chance to improve the quality of the tillers for higher yield potential.
A drought is looming for this crop year. This should allow for quick planting conditions but is your fertility program prepared? Plants need water to access nutrients yet PROVEN G3’s MOA accesses N from the air to feed each plant N on the roots for a daily dose of N. #4R
Hoping this will work but here is a link for our @United_Prairie 2025 Trial Results book. Lots a data here and personal thoughts on things. I know I’ve had questions on where the results are from certain trials from season, so here is everything. Thanks

Working with Pivot over the last 4 years, I’ve gotten to work with some amazing people like UP’s lead agronomist, Kyle Meece. He challenges me to be a better agronomists and I hope he challenges his peers and customers to challenge themselves too. Keep up the good work!
If you’re looking for opportunities to enhance farm profitability, take advantage of programs that pay for N management. Pivot microbes don’t count against the total N, so you can alleviate your risk for having “lower N”. Deadlines are fast approaching so act soon! #4R
@ABSeedman I’ve done 1000s of these. Ears can tell you everything you need to know to unlock higher yields. You just have to listen (and sample a lot)!
@sean_nettleton Every year I learn something new on how to unlock more yield. With a dry Aug this year was very telling how critical water is to hit top end yield. Guarding yield at the end is as much a part as building it at the beginning.
@FoulkShay If they got rid of all the preservatives in food and made humane slaughter laws less restrictive, we could see more local and regional mills, bakeries and butcher shops. Not to mention all the jobs for delivery, packaging, maintenance, etc that would come with them.
@BBallSchoILL@UofIllinois I started stopping tours when I was working on them because I could hear the guides tell the group they had no clue why corn was there. It was fun to see everyone’s reaction once they heard how unique that piece of ground was.
@FoulkShay NH3 is good for peak uptake through pollination (V8-R3). It does nothing early and don’t count on it doing much for high yields alone. I routinely see the NH3 only users peak at 230 bushel corn. Don’t put all your eggs in one application.
@dane_berggren Another factor to consider is how much loss occurs from pests, lodging, and molds that will rob yield the longer it sits. Drier grain is also going to be lighter and more gets tossed out the back. Monitor data is good but it’s not perfect.
