(Beginning Phase of Bulk Seed and Seed Treating Plant at Troy)


MESSAGE FROM WARREN:

As we move into March you all know we did not get much field work done in February putting us behind a bit.  Advanced Agronomics was able to get some dry fertilizer applied but, still have a long way to go to be on schedule.  Our people are working anytime the ground is either frozen or deemed dry enough to go. Be assured that we are all aware of the work to be done. Our people are working to have equipment ready and we have hired a few extra people to help when we can go. We have hired a couple of qualified applicator operators to help this spring.

We have a good supply of all dry and most liquid fertilizer to get started with. This product is in our warehouses and ready to be applied as soon as possible. We have all of our anhydrous ammonia tanks full.  This is the one form of fertilizer that I am rally concerned about. We have a limited number of trucks to bring it to us and a limited number of supply points to source it from. As I have discussed with most of you there will need to be a good bit of patience this spring when it comes to ammonia. Trucks will be coming as fast as they can but, we know that there will be long lines at the terminals and I mean long lines (4-8 hour waits). There will be little that we can do but just keep on top of transportation. Our company has a lady (Lana O'Connor) who is very good at getting product to us and she will do everything possible to keep up. If you own  NH3 tanks and they are not full I would encourage you to bring them in so that we can get them filled now.

As indicated in the picture above we are moving along with the new Bulk Soybean bins and new treater at Troy. We see more producers going to bulk seed and more seed being treated each year. Our results for the past several years show that treating with a good fungicide has paid real dividends at harvest.  With the real possiblity of a wet cool spring this will be even more important in my mind. We will be treating most beans with either CrusierMaxx or Trilex 6000. The RoundupReady 2 Yield beans will be treated with Acceleron. The last few years most beans that have been treated with a fungicide also have had an innoculant applied. We are using either Optimize or TagTeam. Again, this practice has seemed to be paying dividends at harvest. With the bulk beans and treaters located at Denton, Troy, and Kiro you are very close to a delivery point or treater. We also have a delivery system that you may want to talk to us about. 

We still have access to good seed varieties in both corn and soybeans. Please call Jed for your Monsanto seed needs, J.R. for the Pioneer varieties and Jesse for your Taylor Seed varieties in Brown and Doniphan counties. In the Shawnee county area contact Arlan for your Monsanto or Taylor needs.

I would encourage you to get with Ron, Roger, or Danny in the very near future to make sure they have your maps and all other info for your fertilizer and ag chemical application needs. It is easier to talk about these orders now when it is not quite such a busy time. All of our people have cell phones and their numbers are listed on the contact tab of the front page of this webb site.

I keep reminding you that we have more Certified Crop Advisers that any other company in northeast Kansas. But, we can't help you if we don't hear from you.
