Agronomist Christmas Gift is Coming Soon

BY Dairyland Seed Agronomy Team

Most of you have been relatively good this year. So, the Santa Clausgronomists will have a great gift for you. The annual Product and Agronomy Research (PAR) Report for 2023 will be out just in time for Christmas!

The Dairyland Seed Agronomy Team has once again been busy collaborating with researchers, contractors, and growers throughout the marketing area to conduct agronomic trials. Each year it is a hectic race to get harvest data collected, analyzed, and presented in a timely fashion. This year was no exception, and a late harvest in many cases made the turn around even tighter. But great teams rise to the occasion and the 2023 Annual PAR Report will be ready for your stockings.

What can you expect from this year’s report? We continued several projects from previous years including corn foliar fungicide timing, foliar fungicide for silage corn, Utrisha™ N use on corn and corn harvest timing. New this year are a couple soybean trials looking at micronutrients, sclerotinia white mold seed treatments and Utrisha™ P use on corn and soybeans. We will also feature a discussion on seed orientation while planting corn. Another new feature with be our Curiosity Corner which is a quick look at concepts and products in a demonstration or show-and-tell format. We will report the simple data, but it is only one strip in one location. These plots are a good place to look at future full-scale trials.

Look for your 2023 copy in the mail, online, at your next Dairyland Seed function or ask your nearest Dairyland Seed representative. Then, in February, join the Dairyland Seed agronomy team for further discussion on these topics and more in the Dairyland Seed Café virtual meetings. These Teams Meetings will be scheduled every Friday morning in February at 7:30 A.M. CT/8:30 A.M. ET. Mark your calendars now for February 2, 9, 16 and 23. Watch your email for the link.
