From frost to extreme heat, the crop has seen many challenges this season. Sound Agriculture Senior Vice President of Agronomy Jeff Divan says that impacts fertility. “We’ve had a lot of curve balls thrown our way, particularly with the hot and dry conditions,” said Divan. “When we through a lot of heat and dry conditions, we have the opportunity to volatilize a lot of the nitrogen. That will leave us with a potential deficiency looming in the corn crop.” Sound Agriculture has a foliar applied product called Source that works with the microbes that are already in the soil. “We work with the microbes that are already in the soil and we’re getting them to be more active.”
