Back to visit Bill & Jack for a robot nitrogen update. The robots are rolling… hope you got some rain @MdMcLean1
Nitrogen robots are proving their worth, even in challenging dry periods. With lower nitrogen use than expected, the corn crop is holding up well, showing good kernel set. A little rain would go a long way to maximize these results. #AgTech #NitrogenManagement

Despite dry growing conditions nitrogen robots continue to do the job for @MdMcLean1 . Check out the latest update on how Jack and Bill are managing the crop's nitrogen needs in a 97-acre field trial on #Corn School. #ontag #cdnag
