Ag PhD Agronomy Workshops
Wouldn’t it be great if you could cut your expenses by 5 to 10 percent
and watch your yields go up by 5 to 10 percent at the same time? Not
only is that possible, we can absolutely help you do that if you attend
each of our 3 big events, our free Ag PhD Agronomy Workshops, Soils
Clinics, and Tiling Clinic.

At our Agronomy Workshops, you will receive a free agronomy manual, and many ideas that will help your
operation in 2016 and beyond. Our topics will vary depending on the location and the crops and pest issues in that
area, but here are some of the things we’ll be discussing:
• Roundup Ready 2 Xtend - where does it fit, and how can you have the greatest success with this new trait
• What did we learn from last summer’s Ag PhD Field Day plots featuring yield champs in corn, soybeans,
and wheat
• 2015 Ag PhD and farmer research plot summaries
• Which input expenses to cut vs. which to keep
• Resistance issues – weeds, diseases, insects
• Suggested pest control programs for 2016 in corn, soybeans, wheat, sunflowers, milo, cotton, rice, lentils,
field peas, canola, and pasture
• New pesticides & seed traits for 2016 and beyond
• How can I repeat or improve on this past year’s good yields in corn and soybeans
• Disease control/suppression for some of the worst problems we saw in 2015 including northern corn leaf
blight, white mold, sudden death syndrome, pod & stem blight, and fusarium head blight
• Cover crops – blends to maximize yields and potential disadvantages & benefits
• iPhone & iPad apps you need
At the conclusion of most of our workshops, we will be broadcasting our one-hour daily Ag PhD Radio Show live
from our workshop venue. We invite you to join us for this and ask questions during the show. We will be giving
away free Ag PhD merchandise during the radio show.

How fungicides work
by
DARREN HEFTY
[email protected]
As a long-time agronomist, I’ve heard all kinds of crazy claims over the
years. If the claims come from the sales and marketing department, I
take them with a grain of salt. If those claims come from the research
and development people, it’s generally a different story. When it comes to fungicides, there are a few statements
that can easily be misleading and need to be understood:
#1 - “This fungicide has CURATIVE properties.”
We’re used to seeing a weed, spraying that weed, and killing the weed. Same goes for bugs. If you’ve got a bug
problem, you scout for the bug, then spray it, and see its dead carcass laying there in the field so you know you got
the job done and protected your crop. With fungicides, it’s a completely different story. ALL fungicides work much
better when sprayed in advance of any disease on your plants. Once a disease is visible enough for you to see it,
chances are it’s too far gone and you have already lost yield. Also, if the disease has already started to destroy leaf
tissue, you can’t fix that. Can you stop a disease that’s just getting started? Maybe, but only if it’s truly JUST getting
going (like a 1 to 3 percent infection).
#2 - “This fungicide TRANSLOCATES through the plant.”
When you spray a foliar fungicide, don’t expect much movement. There are two transport systems in the plant. The
phloem is one system which moves up and down bringing water and nutrients throughout the plant as needed.
The xylem is the other and only moves up. Fungicides that actually get into the plant move in the xylem. If you
spray a leaf, for example, and only spray a strip across the middle of the leaf, fungicide can move out towards the tip
of the leaf but will not move back towards the stem.
#3 - “A HALF RATE of a fungicide is all you need.”
Brian and I say this all the time but there’s more to the story than just, “Can I use a half rate?” The real question
is, WHEN can I do this and be successful? Where we most
commonly recommend a half rate of a foliar fungicide is in
crops that are very small and immature. For example, in
wheat we often use a half rate of fungicide when spraying
at herbicide timing. The wheat is only a few inches tall.
Fungicide can only protect the plant when it lands and sticks

is true in soybeans. Our soybeans are often only about a
foot tall and are in 30-inch rows when we spray them in the
early reproductive stages. There’s no point using the same
rate we’d use later on when the beans are fully canopied
and have 5 to 10 times the plant mass. The other thing to
keep in mind is that we farm in a fairly arid climate. If we
were in Mississippi on a wet year with lots of humidity and
heat, etc., we’d plan on using a stronger rate or even multiple • Incorporated in North America in 1969

Can I cut my herbicide rate?
One of the most popular questions I get every year is, “Can I cut my
herbicide rate?” Here is how I usually answer this question.
Yes, you can cut your herbicide rate in some situations. However, in
other cases you may actually need a higher rate. Below are some of the
factors you need to consider when answering this tough question.
by
BRIAN HEFTY
[email protected]
1 WEED SUSCEPTIBILITY. If your herbicide is great on a particular weed, then your ability to cut the rate is much
improved. On the other hand, if you’re dealing with a difficult-to-control weed, you probably need to bump
your rate.
2 WHAT’S THE WEATHER LIKE? Herbicides perform best when weeds are actively growing. If you have had
temperatures in the 70 to 80-degree range during the last few days, that’s great. If you have good soil moisture
and good humidity, that’s even better. Most herbicides perform poorly when the weather is too cold or too hot
or when the weather is too wet or too dry.
3 WEED SIZE. Most weeds are easiest to kill when they are very small. By that, I mean less than one inch tall. The
bigger weeds get, the higher dose it usually takes to control them.
4 SPRAY COVERAGE. If you are using drift reduction nozzles, you are creating bigger droplets. That’s great for
keeping your product from moving off-target, but the downside is reduced spray coverage compared to flat fan
nozzles. Many herbicides move well in plants, but if you don’t get as much herbicide into the plant as you need
to, you will not have a lethal dose to control that weed.
5 MORE CONCENTRATED DROPLETS. This is not true for all herbicides, but with products like Roundup I
actually prefer less water in many cases. When you have the same amount of herbicide in two different tanks,
but one has far less water, that means that each droplet you spray will now be more concentrated. If you have
waxy-leaved plants or very small plants where you can only get a little bit on them before your spray runs off,
the net result of using less water means those concentrated droplets deliver more herbicide into the plant.
6 SPRAY ADJUVANTS. Some spray adjuvants can improve herbicide performance dramatically, but they may
burn your crop. For example, MSO (Methylated Seed
Oil) helps weed control with many herbicides because it
allows the herbicide to better penetrate through waxy leaf
cuticles. If you want less leaf burn, you may go with NIS
(Non-Ionic Surfactant) in some situations, but the weed
control usually suffers slightly.
7 TANKMIX PARTNERS. Some herbicides have antagonism
when mixed together. This is common when combining
grass and broadleaf products. For best results using lower
rates, spraying separately is generally the way to go.
As you can see, there are a lot of factors that go into this. I also
have to say that using labeled rates is generally a good idea if
you want good weed control. While it is certainly possible to
cut your herbicide rates, you need to consider the risk vs the
reward. If you are trying to save $1, it’s probably not worth it.
If you can save $10 per acre, I can certainly understand why
you may want to try a lower rate. Before you cut the rate of
any herbicide, we encourage you to visit with your agronomist
to make sure you can still get the weed control and yield you
expect. Saving $5 on herbicide and losing $20 in yield doesn’t
make sense, but if you can save $5 and give up no yield, that’s a
home run.

Last year you wasted money on fertilizer. You overspent on some nutrients
and underspent on others. Your crop suffered from issues that were
absolutely within your control. Has your fertilizer dealer ever said any of
these three sentences to you? Whether he has or not, unfortunately each
one of those statements is absolutely true for every farmer in the world.
The real question is, are you ready to do something about it?
by
BRIAN HEFTY
[email protected]
I know that putting together your own fertility plan can seem scary at first, but think of the millions of dollars you will
invest in fertilizer in your lifetime. If you improve your knowledge even a little bit on this subject, don’t you think you will
earn more money, get higher yields, and of course, be able to brag more about those high yields to your neighbors while
still telling the truth?
Here is what you can expect to learn in one day with us at a free Ag PhD Soils Clinic:
•
•
•
•
•
How to pull a proper soil sample
How to read a soil test from top to bottom
How to make your own fertilizer recommendations
How to make your own variable rate controller files so you can spread your own fertilizer
How to determine which nutrients you are overspending on and which ones you need more of
This sounds like a good deal, right? You learn all this stuff for free. You make lots more money. What’s the catch? There
are four big reasons we put on our Ag PhD Soils Clinics:
1 Because it’s the right thing to do. We believe God put us on this earth to help farmers. We have the ability to help
you and your farm operation, so that’s exactly what we’re going to try to do.
2 Because if fertilizer continues to be spread incorrectly as often as it happens today, you and I are going to face a lot
more government regulations eventually. Maybe that’s not a big deal to you, but it certainly is to me. We feel that if
we can help thousands of farmers do a better job with their fertility programs, maybe the government will continue
to allow us to manage our farms how we see fit.
3 Because we hope that if you have a great experience at one of our Soils Clinics, you will be more likely to watch
Ag PhD TV and listen to Ag PhD Radio. More viewers and listeners keeps us on the air.
4 Because this is one way we can say THANK YOU for watching Ag PhD TV (we have aired a brand new, half-hour show
each week for almost 18 years now) and listening to Ag PhD Radio (heard daily on SiriusXM channel 147).

5
Modes of Action
by
DARREN HEFTY
[email protected]
Resistance management is becoming a big deal on farms today. I was
recently at a presentation where the speaker said no new chemical
family has been discovered since 1983 when Ronald Reagan was
president. That’s a long time! Since it takes 10 to 15 years to get a new
chemical family to market once it is discovered (and it appears no ag chemical manufacturer has anything in the
pipeline right now), it looks like it’s going to be a while before there are any truly new herbicides. To help you
protect and preserve the herbicides and other crop protection products we have today, we’ve developed the free
Ag PhD Modes of Action app for your tablet or smartphone.
The app allows you to pick the products you intend to use on the farm and put your total plan together. The mode
of action of each product is displayed so you can check to make sure you are utilizing multiple modes of action.
Here are a couple examples.
CORN:
I chose a very simple
corn program. I picked
Corvus as my preemerge herbicide and
DiFlexx as my postemerge treatment.
Corvus has herbicides
from Group 2 and
Group 27. DiFlexx is
from Group 4. That’s
a total of three modes
of action and no more
than one from each
group.
SOYBEANS:
Here I picked a more
complicated program
beginning with three
pre’s. I chose Authority
MTZ plus Prowl
H2O. Then I picked
Roundup, Flexstar,
FirstRate, and Warrant
post-emerge. In total,
this program contains
6 different modes of
action.
Once you pick a program, you can email it to yourself or your crop advisor and put it into action on your farm.
OTHER FREE APPS
GDU CALCULATOR – This year I plan to track my growing degree units for each field much closer than I have in the
past. I used to try to do it all by hand, watching the weather and doing the calculations myself. It was way too timeconsuming for me to actually get it done perfectly. Now you can use this app to track each of your fields in the
upcoming growing season. Just input your field names, zip code, crop planted, and date planted and you’re ready
to go.
CROP NUTRIENT DEFICIENCIES – I’ve been working on fixing soil nutrient imbalances with farmers from all over
the country and beyond. When I find something on their soil tests that’s dramatically short, I often direct them to
the Crop Nutrient Deficiency app. “Hey, your manganese is critically low. Look on
the app and see what a manganese deficiency looks like in your cotton or whatever
crop was in the field this year.” There are pictures from many different crops showing
deficiencies of virtually any nutrient you want to see. I highly recommend this app.
There are many more great agricultural apps that we’ve helped put together as well
and they’re all free for you to download and use. Look for more information at
www.agphd.com or on the app store for your Apple or Android device.
