This was a fun interview. Check it out

[Vance McCoy @VanceMcCoy5]

@ZachLaughlin6 The main body of the field was soybeans. got hailed the day we were harvestingThe beans in the corn were better because of the protection. It was a pain to harvest.If I did it again I would choose the shortest corn possible. 160 bu corn and 50 bushel beans.Separation hard 2 scale

[Vance McCoy @VanceMcCoy5]

I have this 60 inch reduced nitrogen corn with soybean #intercrop but the university is over at the neighbors studying if 120# or 180# of nitrogen is better on wheat 🙄

[Vance McCoy @VanceMcCoy5]

@Michael72540562 That’s rough. We’ve had some hail too. Hang in there

[Vance McCoy @VanceMcCoy5]

@Nebraskero A hail is like being beat to death. A drought is like being paper cut to death. I’ll take my beating and get it over with 😆

@Ndfarmgirl1 With my cow dog in the cab nothing hits the floor so I don’t know

[Vance McCoy @VanceMcCoy5]

@Nebraskero That will make me about $40 per acre more 😆

@Nebraskero Need a Milwaukee and a broom handle 😝

[Vance McCoy @VanceMcCoy5]

@bl_ag_inc Yeah. I was going to try it last year but it was too dry to even make oats. So I skipped the buckwheat.

@johnkempf Common mullein.

[Vance McCoy @VanceMcCoy5]

@CoverCropCoach Cutting back gradually. I have never used treated soybeans and I’m up to 1/3 of corn acres non treated this year. Treating it with compost extract.

Nebraska’s median nitrate level has doubled since '78. High levels of nitrate in drinking water have been linked to pediatric cancers.

@TheWittyFarmer @Ndfarmgirl1 I don’t always eat pasta. But when I do it’s guardian grains pasta.

@bentd76 I listened to this interview this morning. Fantastic! One of the things you talked about was tissue sap analysis and that many times testers send back recommendations that may not be accurate. How do you decide what levels are appropriate?
