Rethinking Crop Residue Management (Sept. 14, 2023)

Under today’s high-input, high-yield management practices, crop residue has become a major headache, even reducing yields. Yet crop residue is also a free, source of soil organic matter and crop nutrition, preventing erosion while improving soil structure and water infiltration.

In this webinar, learn from crop and plant scientists how microbial biodigesters accelerate the natural decomposition process, solving the operational challenges and yield limits of residue management while unlocking improved soil health and nutrient management strategies resulting in fertility savings, extended nutrient release, better plantability and improved crop establishment overall.

Expect to hear about the latest university research and DPH Biological’s commercial field trial data, including how microbial biodigesters can help reduce the continuous corn yield penalty, with a special guest appearance by Dr. Fred Below, head of the University of Illinois Crop Physiology Lab, to answer live questions.

How to Customize Biofertility Practices to Maximize Farm Profit (May 11, 2023)

Biofertilizers give growers a versatile and adaptable pathway to profitability, especially as compared to traditional tools like chemical fertilizers. But more options demand a custom approach when it comes to maximizing each grower’s ultimate profit potential.

How do by-region, by-farm and even by-field characteristics like soil structure, drought, pH, crop, field management and application choices impact a biofertility plan? What short-term versus long-term impacts should growers expect to see? What biofertility recommendations will return the highest ROI based on a grower’s specific yield goals, costs and risk factors? And how do growers choose the best biofertility product for their needs?

Learn the steps to customizing a biofertility management plan for the highest profit, including a review of the latest science, grower experiences and how to use a helpful tool to calculate the ROI of an in-furrow biofertility program for corn growers.

Breaking Down Biologicals for In-Field Benefits (Sept. 14, 2022)

​As growers integrate biologicals into existing fertility programs, many are looking for comprehensive product solutions that improve soil health and fertility throughout the year. Before selecting new products, decision makers need to understand how biologicals can seamlessly and holistically integrate within existing systems to deliver long-term value without disruption to operations.

As the biologicals segment becomes crowded, learn how complete biologicals such as SP-1 Classic™ and Residuce® Complete can boost ROI by manufacturing fertility, improving nutrient uptake and retaining carbon in the soil. Hear field-tested tips and techniques for using biologicals as a complement or replacement to synthetic technologies. Participants will also receive a free copy of the Biologicals 101 white paper.
