A couple of Minnesota corn farmers were recently featured Corn & Soybean Digest and in the AgStar Today publication.

Bruce Peterson farms in Northfield and is the vice president of the Minnesota Corn Growers Association (MCGA). Corn and Soybean Digest asked Bruce what practiced has improved his return on investment. Bruce talked about both the environmental and potential yield benefits of split-applying nitrogen.

It’s hard to do side-by-side yield comparisons of all preplant versus split applications. However, the potential environmental and yield benefits that split applications offer make it worth trying.

Dan EricksonDan Erickson farms in Alden and is a regional representative for MCGA. Dan’s farm was featured in the latest edition of AgStar Today that focused on his family farm and how it has evolved over the years.

Dan Erickson has had a lifetime of experience in farming. He lives on the farm where he was raised in Alden, Minn., with his wife, Jenny, and three kids, Grace (10), Tyler (7) and Katrina (4) where he farms corn, soybeans and alfalfa and also raises dairy heifers.
