Episode 1: Late Season Nutrient Management
No full textRuntime 33:10The end of the growing season has presented a lot of variation in weather from wet to dry across Minnesota. Now is also the time to make decisions on fall fertilizer. On this episode, Dan Kaiser, Fabian Fernandez and Jeff Vetsch discuss where growers' minds should be at this point.Kaiser, Dan; Fernandez, Fabian; Vetsch, Jeff. (2018).

Episode 31: Liming
No full textRuntime 28:37In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, three U of M researchers talk about liming. Which crops benefit the most from lime application? What should growers look for in a liming material? How are the university's lime recommendations developed?McDivitt, Paul; Kaiser, Dan; Rosen, Carl; Vetsch, Jeff. (2020). Episode 31: Liming.

Nitrogen conservation and water quality, Part 1: Tech, edge-of-field, & proactive management solutions
No full textRuntime 29:16Nitrogen conservation and water quality are the subject of today's Advancing Nitrogen Smart episode. There's lots to cover so we're splitting the episode up into two parts. Today in Part 1, Brad Carlson and Jeff Vetsch unpack different conservation solutions, and what might be achieved from their adoption. In what situations might buffer strips, cover crops, and corn genetics play their part? What about using technology-such as active and passive sensors? How do any reactive mitigation costs compare with proactive nutrient management planning? This and much more on today's episode.Carlson, Brad; Vetsch, Jeff. (2025).

Episode 33: Nutrient Interactions
No full textRuntime 31:38In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, three U of M researchers talk about nutrient interactions. What are nutrient interactions and how important are they to crops? Which nutrient interactions are of concern to crop producers? What can you do to avoid misinterpreting plant tissue analysis results due to nutrient interactions?McDivitt, Paul; Kaiser, Dan; Fernandez, Fabian; Vetsch, Jeff. (2020).

Sulfur management: In-season, source, carryover, soybean & more
Get PDFRuntime 27:06This month's episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast is all about sulfur. Fertilizer guidelines go through changes periodically, but are there any upcoming changes to the sulfur fertilizer guidelines specifically? What does current research tell us about managing sulfur for Minnesota crops? Were there any surprising results? Should growers proactively add sulfur to crops out of caution, or is that practice unnecessary? What are some final takeaways that our panelists want Minnesota farmers to know about?Coulter, Jeff; Vetsch, Jeff; Naeve, Seth; Kaiser, Daniel. (2025).

Episode 62: In-Season Nitrogen Decision Tools
Get PDFRuntime 35:20"In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, we’re discussing nitrogen decision tools. How much are we actually at risk of losing fall or spring applied nitrogen because soils are saturated in May? What options do we have to assess nitrogen loss following heavy rain? If a grower is planning on applying nitrogen in season, what suggestions would you have for sources, timing, placement, and inhibitors? How late in the growing season can you apply nitrogen and what should you consider?

Episode 8: Phosphorus and Potassium Application in a Late Spring
No full textRuntime 16:01In this episode, Dan Kaiser, Lindsay Pease, Melissa Wilson, and Jeff Vetsch discuss phosphorus and potassium application in a late spring. Should growers be concerned when applying P and K if soils are wet? Is it better to delay planting and get fertilizer applied? Are there options to apply P and K post-planting?Kaiser, Dan; Pease, Lindsay; Wilson, Melissa; Vetsch, Jeff. (2019). Episode 8: Phosphorus and Potassium Application in a Late Spring.

Episode 40: Starter Fertilizer Issues
No full textRuntime 26:59In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, three U of M researchers discuss starter fertilizer issues. What makes liquid starter fertilizers risky when applying on or near the seed? Should growers adjust their liquid in-furrow application rates in dry years? Is it a good idea to mix liquid fertilizer with fungicides or insecticides?Thank you to Minnesota's Agricultural Fertilizer Research and Education Council (AFREC) for supporting the podcast.McDivitt, Paul; Kaiser, Daniel; Vetsch, Jeff; Potter, Bruce.
