Do you like BBQ?

Not all BBQ is made the same. 

Do you want to eat BBQ that is just sufficient in taste or BBQ that is mouth-watering and award-winning?! 

Most would say mouth-watering and award-winning. 

As a grower, should you provide your plants with sufficient nutrients to survive or should you dial in the details that make your crop award-winning and profitable on a per-acre basis? 

Kyle Lilly, a Plant Nutrition Product Developer, joined as a guest on the #LeadersTalkCrops series of CropTalk to share why he believes growers should ditch the sufficiency-based approach when managing crop nutrition. 

Kyle drops a bunch of actionable knowledge bombs in this conversation including: 

- What nutrients can be applied directly as seed treatments to get the crop off to a healthy start 

- How growers can use nutrients as physiological tools to steer plant growth and performance 

- What tools are available to manage ethylene levels in crop production 

Until next time, #StartCleanStayClean
