These three charts of corn and soybean yields show again that excellent mineral nutrition equips corn and soybeans to cope with fungal diseases. Often, yields with mineral nutrition exceed benefits of fungicide. November 15, 2021  Iowa State University microbiologist and plant pathologist Dr. Alison Roberts conducted these three random-rep trials. The nutritional products are from Spraytec, based […]

If you have only one hour to watch a video on the plan to impose gene-altering vaccines as the primary pandemic defense, here it is: David E. Martin, phD, reveals how Big Pharma and Global Governance is choking your health freedoms. Dr. David E. Martin Dr. Martin’s Nov. 5, 2021 presentation, Weaponization of Coronavirus: When Nature

I remember introducing Dr. Neil Harl this way at many Professional Farmers of America seminars: “Ladies and gentlemen, sharpen your pencils. Dr. Harl speaks at 250 words per minute, with gusts up to 300. But every word will be perfectly clear.” Dr. Neil Harl Nov. 8, 2021  By Jerry Carlson   We’ve never posted an “obit”

Here’s an update of a commentary I published February 22, 2021 — citing a dozen reasons why farming is the healthiest place on the planet during the Covid-linked catastrophe.  November 2, 2021 By Jerry Carlson  Seven months ago I said on this site: “Living and working on your farm or ranch is a haven from pandemic paranoia, cultural clashes and

Today, a coalition of 24 environmental and animal rights organization petitioned the Environmental Protection Agency to enforce rural air pollution regulations much more strictly. They say EPA’s 2005 compromise on pollution from confinement animal feeding operations (CAFOs) leaves many communities in a “purgatory of legalized air pollution.” October 28, 2021  The environmental organizers sense that

Pennsylvania’s Amish and Mennonite farmers dealt with Covid by not locking down their churches. Not getting Covid shots. Not going to hospitals. Now it’s clear that their communities in and around Lancaster County, PA have “herd immunity” from Covid-19. Life is normal. October 26, 2021 By Jerry Carlson   There’s no statistical data on severity of Covid cases among the county’s

Climate-change “scientists” and their political allies, pleading for trillions of tax dollars to control CO2, are shrieking: “We’re almost out of time.” October 18, 2021 By Jerry Carlson  They’re right. An overwhelming 30-year “Pacific Decadal Oscillation” (PDO) trend toward global cooling will soon expose man-made greenhouse-gas false alarms. The 26th UN Climate Change Conference Oct. 31-Nov. 12

Over the years we’ve observed that soils with low fertility and low biological life can respond with dramatic yield gains when infused with beneficial bacteria and fungi. Here’s an experiment by research agronomist Jim Porterfield which offers more evidence of the power of fresh, inoculated soil life.   October 15, 2021 Below we’re publishing a research summary which Porterfield e-mailed

Robust soil biology is the foundation for this Latham corn number’s ability to stay healthy with green leaves into mid-October. The field in north central Iowa has a history of receiving cattle manure in recent. seasons. The grower also applied gypsum over the past several years when he could find a supplier.

We encourage you to study the profit analysis on the table below, showing a 6.7 bu. per acre yield gain from one foliar spray of Fulltec Impulse Soy at R1 — in a replicated trial. Without at least three to five standardized trial replications, it’s hard to “see” a 6 or 7 bu. yield gain.
