Data in and of itself is interesting, but if it's not actionable, then it's worthless. What we've done is we've put it in a platform where people can take action. They can look at it. Anybody can look at it and say, okay, do this for the next season and be able to make smarter decisions because you know what the risks are that are out there.

Ladies and gentlemen, farmers, ranchers, and distinguished guests, thank you for listening to the Farm for Profit podcast, where we discuss the latest ideas, methods, trends, and techniques available to help your farm achieve higher levels of farm profitability. Remember, if you aren't farming for profit, you won't be farming for long.

So here to talk nitrogen stabilizers with a great representative from Corteva, I've got Andrew Luzum here. And welcome back to the podcast. Thank you. Appreciate it. We had a great conversation with Taylor earlier this fall focusing on fall applied nitrogen. What types of insights do you have to share with us on that side, Andrew?

01:12 - 01:29 Andrew Luzum

I mean, even when we're applying a fall nitrogen stabilizer, the reality is hopefully we're applying nitrogen in the fall when it's below 50 degrees and the soil temps are falling. realistically, we're not using the days of our stabilizer in the fall or hopefully the winter. It's actually we're using those days in spring as soil temps warm up. It's really when we have nitrogen at risk of loss.

And so that's why we want to make sure we're using nitrogen stabilizers both fall and spring. But realistically, you know, you look at this last year, you know, March was actually probably more of our nitrogen loss time period this year. And nobody thinks about that. March was relatively dry for most of the corn belt. And really, you look at what happened this last year.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Luzum

We went through a warm March. We started to convert nitrogen. And then what happened in April and May? It started raining and it never stopped, right? And so when you look at what we've seen in this last year, we had a lot of falling hydrous trials with NSERV out all over the Corn Belt this last year.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Luzum

When we compare those trials, where we had NSERV, we were carrying an average of 5% to 11% more nitrogen in the ammonium form than in nitrate form. You may say, why is that important? When nitrogen is not in the ammonium form and it's in the nitrate form, it's a totally susceptible to loss, right? And we know that 70% of our loss happens below ground.

00:00 - 00:00 Andrew Luzum

So that's why we want to make sure we're using proven products like insert and instinct.

00:00 - 00:00 Corey

Yeah, I wonder if all of our producers realize how important it is to have nitrogen in the ammonium form.
