Last week we talked about some of the reasons why we need to be focused and purposeful about when we apply our Nitrogen to meet regulations, as well as some of the yield reasons that go along with that. So, over the next few weeks, I want to begin the process of talking through some of the options we have at our disposal if we are going to apply Nitrogen multiple times throughout the season. This week, we are going to start at the beginning, with our planter.

The holidays are here, and Purina is helping several of our CVA locations spread some cheer! Now through December, a "Feed Greatness" promotion is running at St. Edward, West Point, and Elgin, Nebraska locations, as well as Akron, IA.
This fall, some growers from my area received notice from their local NRD that they will be subject to more stringent regulations on the timing and amount of Nitrogen that they can apply to their corn fields going forward. This is by no means the first instance of regulations coming to growers about their application of crop nutrients, and I seriously doubt that it will be the last. However, as I have spoken to both Ag producers and the general public in the past couple of weeks, I think that there is some serious misunderstanding about the how and why we find ourselves dealing with regulations such as this.
