Montana Wheat Plots

So last week I was in Montana on a fertilizer mission.  First on the list was to visit our spring wheat research plots near Billings.  These were conducted by long-time collaborator Neal Fehringer.  Neal is a well known crop consultant and has conducted research trials at his home farm for a number of years.  Below we see Neal talking with retail partner Mike Kilzer and SAM Bruce Keck.
We are testing a number of things this year including Primagro N and foliar applications.  The plots look good this year as there has been plenty of moisture.  In addition to yield, the all important "% grain protein" will be measured for determination of treatment effects.  
Neal has worked with AgroLiquid for a number of years now, and recommends their use to growers he works with.
Hear what he had to say on the Research Facebook page @DrJerryCropDoc.  Lot's of other stuff there too.  And you don't have to be a Facebook person to visit the page.  I too was a skeptic till recently.  Check it out.
