In this installment of the No-Till Farmer webinar series sponsored by Agricen, Alison Vogel and Tim Sickman discussed how growers can maximize their nutrient efficiency in their soybean yields.

During this webinar, you’ll learn: 

• New ideas for boosting soybean yields while maximizing ROI 
• Steps you can take for more uniform emergence and greater plant vigor 
• Why nutrient release from residue and the soil is important to your crop 
• How to maximize yield and plant performance by extending nutrient availability later into the season
