How to Make Your Dry Fertilizer Work Harder and Go Farther
Thursday, Sep 22, 2022 2:00 PM EDT Approved for .5 CCA CEU Credit in Nutrient Management
With high fertilizer costs, growers need to be making the most of every nutrient they apply.
One often overlooked way to achieve higher return on investment is by improving the efficiency of dry fertilizers that are spread in the fall or spring. Technology that can improve the efficiency of dry fertilizer applications–so that more of the applied nutrients are taken up by the crop–can help growers increase their yields and keep money in their pocket.
During the webinar, you’ll learn:
- Why the amount of fertilizer you apply doesn’t always equate to the amount of fertility available to your crop
- How next-generation technology can enhance your dry fertilizer for maximum availability and uptake in the spring
- How to get more out of every prill you’ve paid for, while giving your crops a nutritional boost from greater access to applied fertility

Using the Language of Microbes to Power Your Fields
Now on Demand! Original Airdate: September 6, 2022
Approved for 0.5 CEU Credit in Nutrient Management
Did you know that plants communicate with the rest of the natural world? It’s true. At Novozymes, we’ve identified signaling molecules released from soil microbes that tell plants they’re close by and ready for beneficial interactions.
In this webinar, you’ll learn about lipo-chitooligosaccharides (LCO), the forms they take and the many benefits they have to offer with both broad acre and specialty crops. Our scientists and agronomists will walk participants through the complex soil ecosystems that produce these signaling molecules, the elite molecule types we work with and the appropriate methods of applications, from seed treatment to in furrow and everything in between.

Use Data Driven Process Control to Increase Farm Profitability and Yields
Now on Demand! Original Airdate: August 11, 2022 Approved for 0.5 CEU Credit in Crop Management
Conventional ways of measuring soil moisture make crop yield management essentially a guessing game that needlessly wastes water and nutrients. With drought conditions throughout the U.S. and input prices spiking, growers are looking for tools that tightly control their growing process to optimize inputs, while still driving significant yield increases across all their crops.
In this webinar, AquaSpy Head of marketing Kathleen Glass and Seedway Watermelon & Summer Squash USMCA Category Manager Chuck Elam will discuss how the simplicity of AquaSpy’s layer-by-layer approach to crop management is easily guiding watermelon producers to better yields and greater confidence in their growing process.

Prepare Your Fields for Next Year’s Crops with a Pioneering Post-Harvest Residue Management Solution
Now on Demand! Original Airdate: August 3, 2022 Approved for 0.5 CEU Credit in Soil & Water Management
Leaving crop residue on your fields takes time and warm temperatures to breakdown in time for spring planting – both of which are limited after harvest. While traditional post-harvest residue management tools can deliver immediate benefits to your field, most actually do not offer the most long-term, benefits for future crops.
Learn how implementing an innovative solution, PhycoTerra® a soil microbial food, into your post-harvest residue management program can help you improve soil health and quality for next year’s crop.

Leveraging Satellite Data to Build Credibility and Value With Growers
Now on Demand! Original airdate: November 2, 2021 Approved for 0.5 CEU Credit in Crop Management
Farmers and agronomists are constantly testing new products, technologies, and management practices. It can be cumbersome to gather unbiased and consistent intelligence on how each of these experiments turns out, however, and yield data alone can’t capture the full story of what went on in the field. Satellite data can fill in those gaps and even provide insight before harvest.
Misty Tucker, Planet’s Global Industry Principal for Agriculture, will discuss some of the unique aspects of the agronomic relationship between grower and crop advisor, share some of her work with Planet’s partners and customers, and iterate how satellite data can shed light on the performance of new approaches and techniques in agriculture.
