Plants experience nutritional imbalances several weeks before they can be observed visually. Learn how to use lab data to predict disease and insect susceptibility that occurs as a result of nutritional imbalance. Learn how to make detailed product application recommendations based on the stage of crop growth and how to evaluate product effectiveness and performance.

Precision Ag has developed a good deal in terms of seed placement and population management. The same degree of management intensity has not been applied to nutrition management. You’ve heard about the 4 R’s, right source, right rate, right time, and right place. But have nutrition management practices actually changed?

For the most part, nutrient management has not changed very much, because it has been difficult to determine what actually worked, and what made a difference. The use of in season sap analysis changes all of this quickly.

We can quickly map out nutrient release curves for different products, identify which products are actually absorbed by the crop and which are not, and determine with a high degree of accuracy whether the crop needs any additional nutritional applications or not. AND, we can get this degree of data integrity for over the full range of nutritional elements, not just N-P-K.

This course is an in-depth review of how nutrients move around inside plants, the locations in the plant where each nutrient first becomes deficient, the key nutrient interactions to manage for increased disease and insect resistance, nutrient interactions to manage to improve quality and yield, and how to comfortably reduce fertilizer applications with certainty that the crop has adequate supply.

This course includes 9 video lessons and quizzes and takes approximately 3 hours to complete.
