    Episode 36: Wheat Nutrient Management
    (2021-03-25) McDivitt, Paul; Franzen, Dave; Kaiser, Daniel; Weirsma, Jochum
    In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, two U of M researchers and Dave Franzen from North Dakota State University discuss wheat nutrient management. Why is nitrogen important for wheat production? What makes managing nitrogen more challenging for wheat than for corn? What was the rationale behind recent changes to the wheat nitrogen guidelines in North Dakota? What are the best management options for ensuring high wheat yields that maintain protein near 14%? Thank you to Minnesota's Agricultural Fertilizer Research and Education Council (AFREC) for supporting the podcast.

    Nitrogen-fixing biological products: Four Midwest experts weigh in on industry claims, on-farm research tips, and more
    (2024-06-06) Kaiser, Daniel; Rosen, Carl; Nafgizer, Emerson; Franzen, Dave
    In this episode of the Nutrient Management Podcast, we're talking all about biologicals. What should companies consider as they test their biological products? Can growers reduce their nitrogen requirements due to biological use? Is there new research out there that tells us about biologicals' effectiveness? What should growers watch out for when they consider companies' claims about biological products?
