In this episode of the Agronomy Answers podcast, host Zach Hefty is joined by Hefty Naturals brand manager Matt Thompson to answer a question every grower has asked: Can you actually protect crops from heat, drought, and other weather stresses? They dive into the science behind abiotic stress, explain how products like plant growth regulators, amino acids, and biologicals work, and discuss why timing is everything when trying to preserve yield. If you've wondered whether these products are worth the investment, this episode breaks down what they can — and can't — do in the field.
