322: The Cost of Over Using Nitrogen

Are you paying for nitrogen that never even makes it into your crop? 

Over applying means run off that goes straight into rivers, drinking water, and out of your pocket. It’s a growing problem for farmers. However, you don’t have to settle. You can grow high yields with less nitrogen, protect your ground, and your profits.

In this episode, we get real about:

• Why more nitrogen doesn’t always mean more yield;

• The best ways to manage N so every pound pays you back; and

• How small changes can save you $40–50 per acre without losing yield.

The bottom line: if we manage our nitrogen better, we win twice—more profit in our pocket and cleaner water for our families.
