episode Soil Strategies with Professor Dan Kaiser cover

Beskrivelse

If you’ve ever felt like nutrient management is getting more complicated and more expensive than it should be, this episode is worth your time. We sit down with Professor Dan Kaiser from the University of Minnesota, and he brings a really practical, no-nonsense perspective. He talks about how farming has shifted from simple programs to a flood of data, products, and opinions and how that’s actually making decisions harder, not easier. One of the biggest takeaways? A lot of growers might be overthinking (and overspending). Kaiser explains why you don’t always need to replace every pound of nutrients, why soil testing matters more than ever, and how focusing on the basics can save serious money without hurting yields. It’s not theory. It’s straight from years of field research and working with real farms. If you’re trying to make smarter decisions going into 2026, or just want to cut through all the noise in ag right now, this one’s definitely worth a listen. 👉 Please follow us on your favorite podcast app, and don't forget to like and subscribe on YouTube.  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@HoardsDairyman1 [https://www.youtube.com/@HoardsDairyman1] Website: https://hoards.com/ [https://hoards.com/]

Welcome to the Hoard’s Dairyman Podcast, your source for science-based information you can use on your dairy. Hoard's Dairyman Associate Editor Jessica Miller reads the FARM-accredited article from the magazine titled, "Is it time for a change?" by Robert James. The National Dairy Farmers Assuring Responsible Management, or FARM, Program, created by the National Milk Producers Federation in partnership with Dairy Management, Inc, helps ensure the success of U.S. dairy farmers by providing assurances to dairy customers and consumers. The FARM Animal Care Program helps to demonstrate dairy farmers’ commitment to providing excellent care of their dairy cattle and producing safe, wholesome milk. FARM Animal Care Standards require annual continuing education for stockmanship, pre-weaned calves, fitness to transport, non-ambulatory animals and euthanasia. Listening to these podcasts meets the continuing education standards. Farms can document their continuing education by using templates found at nationaldairyfarm.com [https://nationaldairyfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/FARM_Continuing-Education-Training-Log_Animal-Care_FINAL_051021-1.pdf] or contact your FARM evaluator for more information.
