Here are some of the things we’ll be discussing:

- What did we learn from last summer’s Ag PhD Field Day plots featuring yield champs in corn, soybeans, and wheat?
- 2015 Ag PhD and farmer research plot summaries
- Which input expenses to cut vs. which to keep
- Resistance issues – weeds, diseases, insects
- Suggested pest control programs for 2016 in corn, soybeans, wheat, sunflowers, milo, cotton, rice, lentils, field peas, canola, and pasture
- New pesticides & seed traits for 2016 and beyond
- How can I repeat or improve on this past year’s good yields in corn and soybeans
- Disease control/suppression for some of the worst problems we saw in 2015 including northern corn leaf blight, white mold, sudden death syndrome, pod & stem blight, and fusarium head blight
- Cover crops – blends to maximize yields and potential disadvantages & benefits
- iPhone & iPad apps you need
