ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Randy Dowdy and David Hula sit down for another wide-ranging conversation about harvest, crop performance and the lessons they’re taking into next season. With corn harvest underway, the pair discuss strong yields, genetics and fungicide performance, managing grain handling challenges and what this year’s crop is teaching them.
They also dive into an intriguing question: Can wheat be planted with a precision planter instead of a traditional grain drill to improve depth control and emergence? Randy and David explore 15-inch-row wheat, singulation, starter fertilizer, biological products and the potential impact of more uniform emergence and tillering.
The conversation also looks ahead to 2027, including wheat and double-crop soybean opportunities, phosphorus management, grain sorghum, equipment decisions and the importance of challenging conventional thinking.
Plus, Randy shares updates from the deer operation, including fawn vaccinations, weaning and the challenges of handling mature bucks.
From harvest headaches to new planting strategies, this episode is all about learning from the field, testing new ideas and finding the next opportunity to push yields and profitability forward.
