The summer is flying by! We are quickly wrapping up our final acres of weed control on our soybeans and have begun working on a few in-field experiments. We are also scouting for diseases and spraying several corn fields with fungicide with the air plane. We will spray our nonGMO soybeans with fungicide and insecticide as well and those applications have also started. We are also cleaning out our grain bins and hauling corn to nearby Bartlett Grain in Jacksonville. When conditions allow, the guys are also staging lime with the dump trailer to get ready for fall applications after the crop has been removed. Below are a few pictures of an experiment we are trying this year on a few soybean fields. We are applying liquid fertilizer with the sprayer where we are dribbling the fertilizer between the rows. This allows us to get the fertilizer in the plant via the roots quicker and at higher amounts versus foliar feeding it which is less efficient.
