        One of my growers invited me out to see something he’s trying for first. Mixture of rye and hairy vetch and rye was killed in February. Prior to planting rolled it. No-till planted corn into it.

        Research is in full swing! This trial is one I’m particularly excited about, looking at incorporating litter after planting. Can’t wait to see how it looks in a couple months! Think we’ll get an N boost??? 🤔 Doing the same at V2 and V5 as well!

        ncneagexpo.com math goes like this. Two seasoned (old) agents plus two young agents equals getting the work done. Planted the Pasquotank soybean variety trial. Could use some rain.

        Pleasant surprise w/ grower. Evaluated ears from several fields (see one ear). Had one field accidentally planted 77k per acre (see 2 ears). Fieldview says they’ve had 7 inches rain since planting. Amazing figures. See secret weapon.
