This week it's all about innovation (and an invitation). Save July 30 for Ag PhD Field Day. The brothers share a new way to fight fungus in corn, and a modern solution to feeding your crops. This week's weed sounds pretty (but is pretty ugly), and an IT about the right tool for the till.

Brian and Darren invite you to attend the Ag PhD Corn Workshop on February 18, 2026. They also discuss the benefits and drawbacks of variable rate fertilizer application, and how to get your residual herbicides to last longer in the soil.

In this episode, Brian and Darren invite you to attend the free Ag PhD Soils Clinic on February 17, 2026. They also discuss improving your fertility program by matching soil test data to your yield data, and then how to successfully plant corn early.

Brian and Darren invite you to attend an Ag PhD Agronomy Workshop this January. They also discuss correcting soils that have excessive calcium, as well as how to reduce corn rootworm pressure.
