Join us in Las Vegas or at a location near you for a free Ag PhD Agronomy Workshop this winter. I believe we have put together our best information yet to help you in your operation.
The reason we do these workshops is to say thanks for watching Ag PhD TV and listening to Ag PhD Radio. We feel truly blessed to have done the TV show for almost 16 years now. Both our TV show and the new daily radio show (SiriusXM channel 80 at 2 pm Central) have great ratings and a really good following – WE REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT!! At our workshops, you get the chance to ask questions, visit with other top farmers from around your region, get a great meal, and go home with a free agronomy book. Darren and I both want to do everything we can to help you raise better and more profitable crops, which in turn helps rural America.
We will vary each workshop based on local interests. In Great Falls, MT, for example, we will spend time on wheat production, while at Fairmont, MN, for example, we will not. We hit the important weed, insect, disease, and other agronomy issues in the local area where each workshop is held. Here are some of the topics we’ll be covering:
- 300 bushel corn formula
- Making this year’s soybean crop your best ever
- Intensive wheat management
- Maximizing profit despite lower commodity prices
- Resistance issues with weeds, diseases & insects
- Ag PhD research info, our plans for 2014, and how you can help
- How to make your own variable seeding rate and variable variety planting maps
- Fertility information you can use
- Suggested 2014 pest control programs in corn, soybean, wheat, sunflower, cotton, rice, lentil, field pea, canola, and pastures
- New pesticides & seed traits for 2014 and beyond
- Sub-surface irrigation with tile
- Potash mine pictures and details
- iPhone & iPad apps you need
After or during most of our workshops, we will be broadcasting our one-hour daily Ag PhD Radio Show live from our workshop venue. We invite you to join us for this and ask questions during the show. I have marked below which workshops will also have a live radio broadcast.
