You wanted proof.
You said, "Show me it works when it's dry." We did.
Then you said, "Show me it works when it's wet." Well, here it is.
Did you drive anywhere south of US Highway 212 this summer? Then you saw it. Miles of yellow corn telling a story you couldn't miss—even at 60 mph. You didn't need to be a farmer to know there was a serious problem in Central Minnesota this year.
But here's what's remarkable: Even with over 30 inches of rain pounding our fields from April through July, some fields stayed green. Some yields stayed strong—and the data shows why.
Consider Goettl Farms' experience. In a year marked by challenging conditions, they achieved:
But here's what really got our attention: When farmers combined two or more products, that's when the synergistic effects kicked in. That's when we saw the real "wow" factor. The products working together created results greater than the sum of their parts.
Still not convinced? Look at a few of these results across Central Minnesota, even with 30+ inches of rain:
In Henderson, side-by-side trials showed a 65 bushel/acre increase using our complete program approach without increase input costs.
You're saying your field is different than your neighbor's? Than the farm 15 miles down the road? Then why aren't you doing something different?
Here's what sets us apart: We don't just talk about biology—we prove it works. Through 50+ research projects across Central Minnesota, we've shown results in:
And when we combine products? That's when the magic happens. That's when we see those synergistic effects that take yields to the next level.
We don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions. Through biological soil testing and years of local research, we create customized crop nutrition programs that work with your specific conditions. We're not here to replace your current agronomist—we're here to enhance your entire program.
Remember how your dad and grandpa used manure? There was a reason.
The University of Minnesota Extension shares, "the conversion of N to nitrate is biological in nature." Without healthy microbes, those nutrients just sit there. These biologicals are essentially "manure in a bottle".
Our research shows that while WEOC (Water Extractable Organic Carbon) levels only decreased by about 10% this year, but many fields were already running on empty. The saturated conditions just exposed what was already there—or rather, what wasn't.
When we provide the correct food source for soil microbes, they do what they're meant to do: make nutrients available to your plants.
You can't predict the weather. You can't control the markets. But you can prepare your soil to handle whatever comes next.
This isn't about spending more money—it's about reallocating your funds to what actually works. With relief money coming in, you have a choice to make. Will you put it into the same old P and K that left you with yellow corn? Or are you ready to try something that's proven to work - not just in "the 'I' states" but in your neighbor's fields?
We're done talking. Now it's show time.
Join us for the 3rd annual OH YES YOU CAN Mineralization & Crop Seminar at Crow River Winery in Hutchinson, MN. We're bringing:
Can you afford to miss this? Better question: Can you afford another year like 2024?
The science has changed. The proof is here. The only question left is: Are you ready to change with it?
