Given this, the Kentucky Farm Bureau’s Water Management Working Group (WMWG) and the Kentucky Agriculture Science and Monitoring Committee (KASMC) have compiled a quick-reference…

Daniel Kaiser, University of Minnesota-Twin Cities, Extension Soil Fertility Specialist, has headed up quite a few micronutrient yield response trials throughout the state prior to the program’s unfortunate de-funding back in 2014. Over that time, Kaiser and his team have looked at nearly every micronutrient from A to Zinc, across soil type and crop, concluding that the best…

Early this spring, farmers were able to get in their fields and start planting — especially in the southern part of the country.

All plants require a sufficient supply of essential major, secondary and micronutrients to reach their potential. However, no nutrient should be seen as secondary in importance as they all have a part to play in increasing yield or improving quality. Read more nutrients analysis from Lancrop Laboratories here.
