Here are some of his recommendations for what growers should turn their attention to as the growing season gets into full swing.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Take a stand<\/strong>. \u201cCheck on stand establishment and emergence in your fields,\u201d says Ferrier. \u201cThink about what changes you might want to make to planting and tillage operations for next year, based on what you are seeing right now. Are there rows that are slower or faster to emerge? Is planting depth consistent across the field?\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scout it out<\/strong>. \u201cThis is a great time to scout to see how your burndown application performed for early season weed control,\u201d he says. \u201cScout your fields to see if you missed any weeds. And if there are weed escapes, do some research to figure out how you can control them in crop, and in the future. Check if there are multiple modes of action you could be adding that are effective on these particular weeds to get them under control and provide a solid resistance management option too.\u201d<\/li>\n<li><strong>Put a flag in it<\/strong>. Ferrier has a great tip that helps with identifying weed seedlings. \u201cStick a wire flag beside any young seedlings you don\u2019t know so you can find it again when it has grown and is easier to identify,\u201d says Ferrier.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Notice the nutrients<\/strong>. \u201cThis is a great time of year to watch for nutrient deficiencies in the field, and mapping their location. We have a plant growth regulator product called <a href=\"https:\/\/nufarm.com\/ca\/product\/proliant-tm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Proliant<\/a> that can help crops reach their full potential and better utilize soil nutrition.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Do you have a specific question this season?
