FIELD NOTES FROM KOCH AGRONOMIC SERVICES

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we'll discuss the importance of research in agronomic inputs. Two scientists with KAS, Stacey Wertz and Harjot Dhaliwal will talk about the challenges and rewards of working behind the scenes to maximize yields. They'll tell us what grower feedback has meant to two products, CENTURO and PROTIVATE, as they are out in the fields actively helping growers feed the world.

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we'll learn more about the benefits of cover crops and how they can fit into your nutrient management plan. KAS technical agronomists, Lacie Thomas and Evan King, discuss how cover crops can become a cash crop, improve soil health and also act as nitrogen scavengers.

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we're discussing pasture and range management with our KAS experts, Technical Agronomist, Lacie Thomas, and Territory Business Manager, Ryan Walker. They'll address pasture management and the inputs needed to maximize yield potential and protect soil health on grazing land.

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we're talking about micronutrient deficiencies. We'll learn what growers can do to optimize their crops' yield potential and how growers in each region can utilize testing and solutions to overcome limiting factors. We'll speak with KAS technical agronomist, TJ Bingham, and product manager, Brandon Peterson. They'll discuss the need for micronutrients and what solutions growers need to reach maximum yield potential in their regions.

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we're talking about drought dangers growers face as it pertains to soil health and nutrients in the field. We'll speak with KAS technical agronomist, Matt Fryer and Kansas grower, Tim Turek. They'll discuss the impact drought has on soil fertility and the tools growers have available to help their crops overcome these limiting factors and increase to maximum yield potential.

In this episode, we welcome two KAS experts to discuss input costs. Regional technical agronomist, Evan King, and product manager, Brandon Peterson, talk about how not protecting nitrogen inputs can have a negative impact on a grower's profits. They also share ways growers can overcome limiting factors to ensure their crops are getting the vital nutrients they need to achieve maximum yield potential for the best return on investment.

In this episode, we welcome our new Field Notes moderator, Ken Root, as he talks with KAS technical agronomist, Matt Fryer, about nutrient access and the many variables that can affect nutrient availability at critical times in a crop's life. Matt also discusses the KAS solutions growers can utilize to ensure nutrient access and increase maximum yield potential.

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, our experts go through the science behind the KAS nitrification inhibitor, CENTURO. They explain the truth of how the field-proven, EPA-registered formula works with anhydrous ammonia and UAN to help protect growers' nitrogen investments. Lacie Thomas, technical agronomist for KAS, and Stacey Wertz, KAS senior research chemist, also discuss how Pronitridine, the active ingredient in CENTURO, offers highly effective below-ground protection against leaching and denitrification for fall- and spring-applied nitrogen.

The Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services (KAS) breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we talk with KAS experts about transient deficiency—what it is, how it can affect a crop's maximum yield potential, and most importantly, how to overcome it. Evan King, technical agronomist for KAS, and Brandon Peterson, KAS product manager, also discuss the KAS solutions growers can utilize to protect their nutrient inputs and their profits.

Field Notes podcast series from Koch Agronomic Services breaks down the science and technology behind agronomy to help growers do more with less. In this episode, we discuss the importance of incorporating a fall nutrient program into a comprehensive, year-round nutrient plan and how KAS can help growers set up for a successful spring planting season. Lacie Thomas, technical agronomist for KAS, and Zach Havens, KAS territory business manager, also discuss a common cold weather myth, and how protecting fall-applied nitrogen can lead to higher yield potential.
