Recorded live at KNID AgriFest in Enid from the Oklahoma Wheat Commission booth, Episode 501 launches Season 5 with a fast-paced crop check and a whole lot of agronomy banter. Dave Deken sits down with Brian Arnall and Josh Lofton to talk January wheat realities: dry conditions, odd winter insect pressure, and early reports of wheat diseases showing up sooner than anyone wants. They also hit canola concerns—like that purple color—and what to inspect right now (new leaves and crown health) as everyone looks ahead to green-up.Next, it's go-time thinking for topdress: why timing, weather, and surface conditions matter—especially when warm days, wind, and dew can increase nitrogen losses. Then the conversation turns into a practical deep dive on plant physiology and decision-making: primordia (the “cells in waiting”), how early-season stress can differ from true deficiency, and why chasing genetic potential without respecting environmental limits can hurt ROI. If you like your agronomy with real-world nuance (and a little friendly arguing), this one's for you!Top 10 takeawaysJanuary crop scouting can be misleading—weather swings can make fields look great or “go backwards” fast.Warm winter + dry stretch = unusual pest pressure, including armyworms in wheat.Early disease reports (tan spot, rust, powdery mildew) mean don't assume “it's too early.”For canola right now, focus on new leaves and crown—that's your “are we okay today?” check.Green-up moisture is the hinge point for both wheat tillering and canola recovery.Topdress timing is a system problem (acres, co-op schedules) and a weather-loss problem (dew + warm + wind).If conditions are right to lose N (dry soil + dew/humidity + wind), waiting can be the most profitable move.A lot of management is about what's happening inside the plant—primordia/cell division—before you ever see it.Stress can be useful; deficiency is where you start giving away yield potential—context (stage/goal) matters.The “right” program depends on your risk profile: protecting max yield vs protecting ROI on inputs.Detailed timestamped rundown00:00–01:15 — Welcome to Episode 501 + Season 5 vibes; shoutout to AgriFest and the Wheat Commission cinnamon-roll traffic.01:16–01:55 — Introductions: Dave Deken with Dr. Brian Arnall and Dr. Josh Lofton; “we were arguing in our office earlier…”01:46–02:10 — Recorded Jan 9, 2026 at the Oklahoma Wheat Commission booth during AgriFest in Enid.02:10–03:05 — Cinnamon roll banter + meeting listeners at the booth.03:07–04:20 — Crop update headline: it's January, it hasn't rained, it feels like June; armyworms in wheat; disease confirmations in SW OK.05:01–06:20 — Canola check: purple color mystery; focus on new leaves + crown health “right now.”06:35–08:10 — “Magic windows” talk: green-up moisture is critical for canola and wheat tillering.09:03–10:30 — Rooting + grazing: planting timing affects anchoring; some fields pull easier under cattle.10:45–12:55 — Topdress season starts early for many; best efficiency late Jan–March; avoid warm/windy/dewy days that can increase N loss (they cite “blow off 15–25%”).13:00–16:55 — What if winter doesn't get cold? Daylength and growth timing; discussion on how wide the N window really is.17:00–22:10 — OSU NPK blog topic: managing “primordia” (cells-in-prep), not just what you see aboveground.22:10–25:20 — Corn example: by V6 you've set rows/potential kernels; stress/deficiency can reduce grain number.28:50–41:10 — Main debate: stress vs deficiency, “leaf deficient but not the plant,” and Liebig's Law barrel analogy.44:20–48:10 — Genetic vs environmental potential, realized yield; precision vs accuracy; risk aversion (yield loss vs input cost).49:40–50:17 — Wrap + resources at reddirtagronomy.com.

Wir öffnen 24 Türchen beim Behind Science Adventskalender mit euch. Heute war hinter dem Türchen ein Zitat von Justus Liebig. Hört gerne auch unsere Folge zu ihm. Schickt uns gern Zitatvorschläge an: podcast@behindscience.de oder bei Instagram @behindscience.podcast “Behind Science” gibt's jeden Samstag – am Science-Samstag. Zwischendurch erreicht ihr uns per Mail und Instagram, und hier gibt's unsere Links, die gerade wichtig sind.

Kate Crawford's Long Now Talk traces an historical arc from Renaissance perspective to AI image models, illustrating how shifts in representational power shape empires, economies—even our shared sense of reality. During the talk, Crawford gives a tour through her detailed artwork Calculating Empires. Through examples ranging from Liebig's critique of agriculture “robbing” soil nutrients, to Faraday's latex insulation that devastated rubber forests, Crawford shows how technologies have long created “metabolic rifts”: systems that extract more than they regenerate.  Don't miss the closing Q&A, where host Kevin Kelly asks Crawford what responsible, non-extractive AI might look like. 

Americans are currently besotted with protein. It's touted as being good for muscle growth, weight loss, skincare, mental acuity, longevity, and much else besides. It's sold to men, women, children, the elderly— you can even buy protein for your pets. The protein supplement market alone is worth $21 billion and growing—and extra protein is being added to coffee, cereal, pasta, beer, ice cream, and popcorn. But as frenzied as we currently are about protein, this is not the first protein boom—or even the second. Protein has been promoted as a charismatic, cure-all nutrient for nearly two centuries. In this episode, with the help of Samantha King and Gavin Weedon, the authors of Protein: The Making of a Nutritional Superstar, we look closely at all our protein crazes and their associated protein products—from beef tea to whey powder—and see what they can tell us about our current protein mania.  This episode was produced by Max Freedman. Decoder Ring is also produced by Willa Paskin, Katie Shepherd, and Evan Chung, our supervising producer. We had editing support from Josh Levin and fact-checking by Sophie Summergrad.

In one of our favorite episodes as an encore we find out: What does it really take to move from 300 pounds to a 9:15 Ironman without losing your love of great food and a full life? We sit down with chef-turned-triathlete Will Liebig to unpack the habits, community, and mindset that reshaped his health over a decade. Will is open about the grind: he swapped isolation for master swimming, built cycling and running tribes, and embraced the 80/20 training rule—keep 20 percent truly hard, keep 80 percent easy. The gains came not from punishment, but from patience.Food is a highlight. As a classically trained chef, Will rejects fear-based nutrition and shows how fats like olive oil, butter, and cream can fuel endurance when paired with smart timing, portion control, and macro awareness. He eats smaller meals throughout the day, anchors a larger mid-day plate, often skips starch at night for better sleep, and isn't afraid of fasted zone-2 when the plan calls for it. He also defends cheat days as motivation, not failure—a double spicy Bloody Mary after a race or a well-plated steak dinner cooked sous vide because satisfaction matters.We also explore resilience. Will shares the setbacks that tested him—career shifts, grief after his father's passing, and a brush with body dysmorphia—and how he course-corrected by eating enough, tracking with intention, and leaning on his wife, Lisa, for logistics and encouragement. That partnership turns races into shared adventures and keeps training sustainable. Expect practical coaching cues, real-world nutrition, and the reminder that big change demands a wider timeline.
