This free digital product demonstration is brought to you by Strip-Till Farmer and PhycoTerra.
Every farmer knows the value of getting into the field sooner – but residue breakdown can hold you back. Discover how the right residue management practices can help you close the gap between burndown and planting…and answer the question: What would planting earlier mean for your operation?
Dustin Blunier, Director of Agronomy at PhycoTerra®, and Chad Rubbelke, owner of Rubbelke Farms, unpack the agronomic and operational impact of unmanaged residue. You’ll hear both the science and the in-field results showing how microbial food sources can accelerate residue breakdown, improve soil structure, unlock nutrients, and deliver 3–5 degrees warmer soil temperatures. That added warmth can mean earlier planting in the spring and stronger emergence.
For strip-tillers, that means a faster return on nutrients tied up in residue, better seedbed conditions, and more consistent stands. Whether you’re strip-tilling, no-tilling, or still relying on extra nitrogen or tillage, this conversation will give you fresh ways to approach residue management this fall.
Key Takeaways:
- The true operational, yield, and soil health costs of crop residue
- Why residue doesn’t break down effectively without the right microbial food
- Field trial results and in-season insights from a grower who’s seen the difference
- How PhycoTerra fits into your post-harvest system…no program overhaul needed
