RealAg Radio, April 9: Directed scouting, precision manure, and planting into unfriendly conditions

It’s a story that has impacted a nation, a world. Host Shaun Haney starts off the show with thoughts to the Humboldt Broncos family.

• Plans for new, directed scouting services and “smart farming,” with Richard Marsh, Farmers Edge. These tools include an expansion of crop staging models; and the release of insect and disease risk prediction models.
• Lyndsey Smith and Peter Johnson join to talk all things agronomy — cold, wet soil; seed treatments; base-zero crops; manure management; precision manure spreading; wheat yields in Australia;

Join us for RealAg Radio every weekday at 4 pm eastern on Rural Radio 147 on SiriusXM.
