    There’s never a shortage of field work to be done in the fall, but fall conditions can sometimes be very unfavourable for tillage, manure, or fertilizer applications. To dig into considerations for fall field work, including compaction, nutrient losses, and cover crop success, host Lyndsey Smith is joined by Curtis Cavers of AAFC, Glen Arnold... Read More

    The Agronomists, Ep 171: Sulphur strategies with Dr. John Lauzon and Stacie Yaremko

    Determining sulphur application rates ahead of the crop can be complicated by several factors, including how much sulphur the environment will provide, if elemental forms of sulphur have been applied in the past, and how much rainfall is expected. Sulphur is an important macronutrient that’s also prone to leaching losses and not mobile in the... Read More

    The Agronomists, Ep 170: Choosing the right variety or hybrid with Allison Bishop and Paul Hermans

    Sure, yield matters, but there’s more to making yield than just genetic potential, including disease resistance and adaptation. Choosing a soybean variety or canola hybrid requires balancing several demands based on a geographic area, yield potential, management options, and disease pressure. To navigate the decision, this episode of the Agronomists features Allison Bishop with BASF,... Read More

    The Agronomists, Ep 168: Soil pH management with Drs. Alan Blaylock, Miles Dyck, and Jeff Schoenau

    Soil fertility is the powerhouse that drives crop yield — and this episode of The Agronomists is an absolute powerhouse of soil fertility knowledge in order to learn more about soil pH. When too high or too low, the pH of soil can create huge issues in nutrient availability, nitrogen fixing capability, and soil microbe... Read More

    The Agronomists, Ep 167: Mighty micronutrients with Aaron Breimer and Lyle Cowell

    Strange colours, whip tail ends, and misshapen leaves can all point to one thing: a micronutrient deficiency. While not overly common, a micronutrient deficient area of a field usually goes from not good to very bad very quickly. To unpack what micronutrient trouble to expect, how to identify different issues, and how and when to... Read More

    The Agronomists, Ep 165: Drone applications with George Gaeke and Adrian Rivard

    Drones, or UAVs, can scout fields, create maps, apply seed, and — eventually — apply pesticides. There are several ways drones are helping farmers and agronomists, but these buzzing bits of tech aren’t a necessarily a one-to-one replacement for sprayers, drills, or even satellite imagery. To discuss what is legal, what’s a good fit, and... Read More
