Corn is showing out now! 40,000 population at R5. One of, if not the best fields I’ve ever had 💪🏻 🌽

“All that cover crop and no til stuff won’t ever work here” a quote that comes to mind when I pulled these out of my dryland fields as I watch all my neighbors get ready to mow their conventional dryland corn down. Jus cause it’s different than grandpa did it don’t make it wrong

Every time I get frustrated with how slow planting is going & im ready to rip off all the liquid systems I have on the planter I’m just gonna ride by this spot in the field without it and I’ll calm right down. Unreal difference when you have the right products in the right place

Still a surreal moment yesterday. I’m beyond humbled by this & can’t thank everyone involved enough. Twitter limits me on characters so I can’t name everyone but they know who they are. I couldn’t be more excited for the future of agriculture. Here’s to a world record!🌱 🏆
Looks like we’ve got a new world record!

Uniformity is king in corn. Bottom ears came up within the first 24 hours of each other, middle ears 25-36 hours & top ears 36 plus hours after the first plants emerged. Same spot, same rows, everything identical. If you aren’t anal about your planters performance you should be

Everyday since August 23rd I get asked what 206 bushel beans look like. Here’s the best comparison I’ve found. The 2 on the left came from some beans of mine making 80 bushels. (Still good beans) but the 2 on the right are the 206 bushel beans. Seed size and weight are everything

David Hula is the undisputed king of corn on this planet. Having him come on our farm today and walk my corn and soybean fields with me and pass on his advice was definitely one of the coolest things I’ve had happen on the farm for sure

Irrigation is the most challenging part of farming in the south. But this picture shows exactly why we deal with the extreme aggravation and work of running them. Dry corners are smoked already

One thing I strive for in high yielding corn in Ga is plant health. Especially late season. We’ve pretty much nailed it on most fields this year. Brown shucks and green stalks is what we want to see! 💪🏻 🌽

As we’re starting up soybean harvest this year it’s got me thinking back on the past 12 months. A year ago my farming world completely changed when we were fortunate enough to break the world record for soybeans. I’ve been able to travel places and meet people that I never could

Stop letting bullion dollar seed companies tell you how much seed to plant. Ultra low population trial looking awesome. 5,000 plants per acre on 60” rows. That’s one seed every 21 inches. 46 acres per bag

In response to all the planter critiquing the last few days. The difference in the top ears and bottom ears is only 16 hours. Keep in mind this field averaged over 300 bushels across the board and had 92% up within the first 24 hours. Always room for improvement on the planter

Had been terrible planting conditions so far this year. But we see able to sneak in one field of beans in good conditions and got as even a stand as I’ve ever seen. They got a good start. Long way to go! 🌱 💪🏻

Today was full circle moment for me. I remember listening to Kip Cullers 17 years ago & taking notes like a mad man on how he produced world record soybeans in awe of 160 bushel beans. Knowing where we are now is a feeling that’s tough to beat from a kid in the audience back then

“Different ain’t always the devil.” The left plant is the “normal” 36 inch rows that everybody around here plants. The right plant is from my 60 inch rows that everybody said would never work in Ga. If you ain’t got people talking about how crazy you are, you ain’t doin it right

Probably one of the best stands of corn I’ve ever gotten. Heavy red clay and 40,000 plants per acre & the emergence timing and singulation are still nearly perfect. Credit to delta force and furrow force. Don’t think it would be possible in these red clouds without those 2 things

It’s aggravating and takes a little time but we check behind every row on this 16 row planter in every field or at least once a day. At a maximum we want no more than 1/8 inch difference in depth in any one row at any given time. Emergence timing is everything in 🌽
