Half of Saskatchewan is watching the canola fill pods. The other half is still sitting in water. 30% of the cropland in the province rated moisture surplus at the time of this conversation, and the ministry's own word is that flooding is the number one source of crop damage in Saskatchewan this year. Yellowing fields, drowned-out low spots, pulses going backwards. The decision framework for in-season nutrition changes when you're not sure which half of the province you're in. Greg Patterson has been doing tissue analysis at A&L Canada Laboratories for decades. Darren Fischer is a technical advisor with Crop-Aid Nutrition who was in the fields in real time during this conversation. This is what they said on July 13, 2026, with the season in exactly the condition it was in. What's Inside - Two seasons on the prairies at once: what each one means for your in-crop nutrition decisions right now - A farm-walk report from Darren Sander at Sander Farms near Sovereign, Saskatchewan -- his fungicide and foliar strategy mid-season - Why you should never apply a fungicide without pairing a foliar with it, and why that's even more true in a wet year - Potassium as the yield driver in both wet and dry conditions: for every pound of nitrogen the crop needs early, it needs three of potassium - How to read a tissue report: the fuel-gauge analogy, what dropping levels actually mean, and why a great crop should drive you crazy - The phloem connection: how potassium and boron work together to move photosynthates through the plant, and what happens when boron is low - The nitrate accumulation trap: when it looks like a nitrogen problem but it's actually a potassium and boron imbalance - Boron in Western Canada: why we're afraid of it, why that's costing yield, and what the research on microbial activity actually says - Foliar selection by condition and crop stage: which product when, and how to think about tank mixing with herbicides and fungicides - Handheld tissue testers vs. lab analysis: what the correlation data actually shows - The fastest way to get a tissue sample to the lab: paper bag, Purolator envelope, 24-hour turnaround - The economics: how to think about a $5-6 foliar pass when you're already sending the sprayer out for fungicide - Frost risk in a late year: why well-fertilized crops mature faster and reduce your window of exposure If you want more from Greg Patterson on soil biology and tissue analysis, the Engine of the Soil series is where he goes deep -- look for those episodes in the GTF Podcast back catalog. And if shallow rooting and soil health in a wet year is where your season is, that same series has the framework.

In this solo episode, Jean-Martin Fortier reveals the ultimate secret weapon for healthy soil and high-yield market gardening: cover crops and green manures. While beginner market gardens often focus strictly on profitable cash crops, long-term farm sustainability and profitability depend on embedding cover crop systems directly into seasonal crop rotations.Jean-Martin explains how standard cover crops eliminate erosion by protecting bare winter soils, while legume-rich green manures supercharge on-farm fertility by injecting nitrogen and building massive subsoil root networks. He breaks down his practical, low-machinery techniques for terminating cover crops on permanent beds and you'll discover how hitting the "golden ratio" of keeping one-third of your garden in cover crop at all times can drastically reduce external fertilizer inputs and unlock deep, long-term soil ecology.Timestamps [00:00] Intro and the importance of multiplying small, localized farms.[04:35] Why cover crops are the underutilized secret weapon of market gardening.[05:53] Two fundamental pillars for long-term farm success: Crop rotation and cover crop programs.[07:53] Protecting bare winter soils from leaching and weather degradation.[08:51] The difference between standard cover crops and legume-rich, nitrogen-fixing green manures.[11:18] How to schedule dynamic cover crop successions between your regular cash crops.[14:51] The "golden ratio": Keeping one-third of your garden in cover crops at all times.[17:43] Step-by-step technical guide to terminating cover crops using a flail mower.[19:09] Using a walk-behind rotary plow and silage tarps for rapid residue digestion.[26:09] Advanced strategies to supercharge growth: Pre-planting broadforking, seed inoculation, and tactical manure application.Dubois Agrinovation: Get 10% off by choosing the promo code ‘MasterClass – Jean-Martin Fortier' when you create an account.

Mens Room Question: What was the awkward or embarrassing moment created by a parent or child?

This is the conversation that happened after the conversation. Part one of our Deb Rubin episode covered the foundations: why sexuality is not an emergency, the three things that make kids stop talking to you, and the difference between sexuality and sexualization. This part two episode picks up exactly where that left off, and goes somewhere most parenting conversations don't. The first thread is clothing. Specifically: what do you actually do when your middle schooler comes downstairs in something that makes your stomach drop? Deb walks us through the questions she loves. Not the panicked parental reaction, but the slow, deliberate, genuinely curious questions that keep the conversation open rather than slamming it shut. Is it weather appropriate? Does it fit? Does it feel comfortable? Is it right for the occasion? And underneath all of those: is my reaction coming from a fear, or from a responsibility? She also names something that most parents are thinking and nobody says out loud: people make a quick snapshot decision based on how you look. Not fair. Not right. But true, and worth telling your kid directly, without judgment, so they can factor it into their own deliberate choices rather than discovering it the hard way. The second thread is social media. Deb waited until her daughters were fourteen before allowing any social media at all. She was strict about time limits and relaxed about content, believing that her job was to manage the dopamine delivery mechanism, not to surveil everything her kids were consuming. And then, in junior year, she removed the limits entirely. Not because the concern was gone, but because she had two years left under her roof to let her daughter practice managing herself and discover, on her own, whether she needed limits at all. Her daughter put them back on after a month. That story, (the limits removed, the daughter who reinstated them herself) is the emotional and clinical centerpiece of part two of our conversation with Deb Rubin. Because it illustrates everything Deb has been saying across both conversations: the goal is not control. The goal is critical thinking. The goal is a kid who, when left to their own devices, reaches for what actually serves them. Jenni closes the episode with a clinical frame that Deb immediately said she was going to steal: the dopamine toolbox. When electronics are the only source of dopamine in a child's life, the consequences are significant and well-documented. The invitation, for kids and for the adults raising them, is to build a diverse toolbox of dopamine sources. Movement. Connection. Creative work. Real-world competence. Not instead of screens, but alongside them, so that the pull of any single source never becomes the whole story.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to The Turf Zone podcast. This episode bids farewell to Funchess Hall, where Auburn turfgrass grew its roots. For many members of the Alabama Turfgrass Association, just hearing the name Funchess Hall brings back a flood of memories. Maybe it was hustling to class with a cup of coffee in hand, late-night study sessions before a soils exam, or learning turfgrass management from professors whose lessons still shape your career today. Funchess may never have won awards for beauty, but for generations of Auburn turfgrass students, it was something far more important — home. Since 1961, Funchess Hall served as the heart of Auburn University's Turfgrass Science program. Although the turfgrass program was already more than three decades old when the Department of Agronomy and Soils moved into the then-new Funchess Hall, over the next 65 years it grew into one of the South's premier turfgrass education programs. Auburn graduates manage golf courses, athletic fields, sod farms and landscapes across Alabama and beyond. Inside those well-worn classrooms and laboratories, students learned everything from weed science and irrigation design to soil morphology and turfgrass pest control. More importantly, they built friendships, professional connections and memories that lasted long after graduation. Now, the end of an era has arrived. This summer, the Departments of Crop, Soil and Environmental Sciences, Horticulture, and Entomology and Plant Pathology are officially moving out of the “infamous” Funchess Hall and into Auburn University's brand-new STEM + Agricultural Sciences Complex. As of late May, faculty and staff are packing decades' worth of research data, teaching materials and Auburn history into boxes, preparing for a full transition by August 1st. Once renovations to Comer Hall are complete in Fall 2026, the demolition of Funchess Hall will be scheduled. Fittingly, the move is happening during the quiet of summer semester — one of the few times campus slows down enough to reflect on the past while preparing for the future. And what a future it is. Auburn's new $224 million STEM + Agricultural Sciences Complex is a stunning 265,000-square-foot facility located at 305 W. Samford Ave (part of the former Hill Residence Hall site). The three interconnected buildings will house departments from both the College of Agriculture and the College of Sciences and Mathematics, creating opportunities for collaboration unlike ever before. The new facility includes state-of-the-art research laboratories, modern teaching laboratories, collaborative student spaces, teaching gardens and even specialized research areas for aquatic animals and insects. For turfgrass students, it represents a major investment in the future of the industry and the continued growth of Auburn's nationally respected program. Of course, while the building may change, the Auburn Turfgrass Management program remains rooted in the same hands-on philosophy that makes it special in the first place. Students pursuing the Turfgrass Management track still earn a B.S. in Crop and Soil Science while gaining practical experience from internships and the Auburn Turfgrass Research Unit just a mile from campus. They'll continue learning the science and management principles needed to become leaders in the turfgrass industry throughout the country. But now students will be based at one of the most advanced agricultural teaching facilities in the Southeast. For alumni, there is a lot of nostalgia in saying goodbye to Funchess Hall. Those green tile walls, aging classrooms and scuffed floors told a story of hard work, tradition and learning. But Auburn has always been about more than bricks and mortar. The spirit of the turfgrass program — the people, the passion and the Auburn Family — is moving right along with it. So while Funchess Hall may be a distant memory soon, its legacy will continue to grow in every superintendent, sports turf manager, researcher and industry professional who once called it home. And somewhere inside that shiny new building, another generation of Auburn turfgrass students is about to start making memories of their own. The departments moving from Funchess Hall to the new buildings are planning a “Farewell to Funchess” celebration on campus during the fall 2026 semester. Watch alumni mailing lists and social media for more information as details are worked out. You have been listening to The Turf Zone Podcast.

How practical would it be to grow our food underground? It's a question being investigated by researchers at the University of Shefffield who are growing crops more than a kilometre below ground-level in a working mine near Whitby. The Environment Agency has produced its first ever annual report into agriculture and water in England. Taking data from the last five years, it assesses the impact of agricultural pollution from farms, and how water availability is being managed. Non-compliance with water regulations has dropped, but 40% of farmers are still breaking the rules. We've been taking a close look at commercial fishing all this week. Ten years on from the Brexit vote leading to the UK leaving the EU, some in the industry say that decision has had a lasting impact on their businesses, and not a good one. We hear from a scallop business in Scotland which says the industry needs more support.Many of us have been sweltering in the third official heatwave of the summer. For farmers with livestock, there's the continual worry that their animals might be overheating, or not drinking enough water. We speak to a farm vet about the impact heat stress can have on the health of livestock and the fertility of cows.Many farms have an education string to their bows nowadays but perhaps not quite on the scale of a farm near Kendal that's been hosting primary school visits for the Westmorland County Agricultural Society for the last 25 years. Hundreds of children from 42 different schools flock to Roger Mason's farm to learn what producing food is all about. Presenter = Caz Graham Producer = Rebecca Rooney

Tim and Tyler talk to the CEO and Co-Founder of Heritable Agriculture, Brad Zamft, PhD. — This episode is presented by Ambrook.

Top agriculture headlines this week include the start of the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement review process and updates from the field as the growing season reaches a critical stage. Farmer sentiment weakened in June as high input costs continued to pressure producers. Today's episode also covers what the USMCA review process could mean for North American trade, the latest on New World screwworm and what growers should be watching as corn enters reproductive stages. This week's interview is with Mitchell Hora, founder and CEO of Continuum Ag, who breaks down the USDA's long-awaited guidance for the 45Z Clean Fuel Production Tax Credit. He explains what the final rules mean for farmers, how carbon intensity scores may unlock new revenue opportunities, which conservation practices qualify and what producers should do now as biofuel companies prepare to roll out participation programs.
