We had an amazing sorghum field day this morning at Wiggins. Thank you to @DustinCooksey and Jim Cooksey for hosting the trial and everyone for attending! We had some great conversation.

Tell me what you want to see. This year one of you will be in the drivers seat. Send me your research ideas (DM and Replies) for fertility and agronomy questions. Then the X community will vote on the idea they like the best. Ideas due to me by Monday am 7.28.25.
