We appreciate you, John!
This is another step in our journey at @nuwaykandhcoop to utilize #sustainable farming practices that make sense. @nytimes@latimes readers need to hear about the good things happening in Agriculture and how our growers and companies are advancing their sustainable practices.
Moving offices around and dug this up for the museum. For those in the room not aware of what this is It’s a 3.5” floppy disc. It was our release of acres which we paid a $.50/acre royalty to AgChem for the ability to use the new VRT method they patented Circa 1996 Soil Teq Inc.
We are in Welcome, MN showing off the See and Spray technology from @GreeneyeAg that we will have available to our growers for the 2023 spring season. Come and ask questions and enjoy some lunch. We will be here until 1:30 today.
Stop 4 at the @TruterraLLC field day and Mitchell Hora @Continuum_Ag talking about interseeding cover crops. 60 inch rows?!? Plant two rows at 30 and skip one. Still end up at 34k seeds per acre. Relay crops? What’s going to work for us?
In Vincent Iowa today at @TruterraLLC AnswerPlot by @WinFieldUnited with @nuwaykandhcoop and growers learning more about regenerative ag practices. Stop 1 Northern Star Seed cover crop species discussion.
Nice shots Hannah @FarmrxAmmann and it was a good day. Thanks to @rantizosprays Ben Etsinger for performing the spray demo for our @nuwaykandhcoop growers and employees in the morning and displaying the T-30 at the From the Ground Up event that evening.
Only his third day at @nuwaykandhcoop and our @WinFieldUnited Associate Levi Kermes already gets to do one of the most rewarding jobs of collecting @VerisTech iScan data. We use this data for @AdaptNitrogen model and VR Planting layers.
The wind is relentless in Southern Minnesota here we can see our average wind speed the last 10 minutes was 26mph. Good news is the soil temp has held in the upper 40's. @snodgrss do you see the wind patterns changing as we go into June spraying season?

It won't be long before planting begins, but remember that sampling can safely occur after planting and emergence without any disturbance or damage to the growing crop. #samplesoil now #soilsampling
The current #corn/#fertilizer ratios is still high vs previous years but the continued rally in corn is helping to improve.
Make note of the dotted line. That is the fertilizer markets expectation of summer values vs Dec '23 corn.
Right now, still doesn't look to improve much.
Before new Russian news, I was thinking about sending a mid-month farmer fertilizer newsletter.
Now, I am definitely doing it. Will try to hit send by Monday.
If you register, DM me your e-mail and I will send you the Feb so you do not have to search.
