Episode 343: Boots In The Field Report September 27, 2024
Manage episode 442379698 series 1221178
In this week’s Boots In The Field Report, Ken Ferrie says yield information is coming in slow, but yield reports are strong. How yields are affected by this late season drought depends on soil type, compaction present, and health of crop coming into the drought. Ken encourages scouts to start doing push tests in fields and monitoring stock quality to make sure harvest order can be set appropriately and combine operators need to be on the lookout for rubbery tips to make sure harvest loss doesn’t get too high. While the moisture can help crops still working on fill and help fall tillage and strip-till applications, it will accelerate stalk quality issues especially in fields that were starting to come apart before the last patch of dry weather. As growers are looking at fall fertilizer budgets, Ken walks through some things to consider when trying to reduce input costs.
