In this episode, we unveil a brand-new segment on the Agronomy Answers podcast called Convince Me. This is where Zach sits down with his dad, Brian Hefty, or other guests and challenges them to convince him of a topic they feel strongly about.

The topic up for debate is whether corn should be planted as early as possible. Brian lays out the case for early planting, covering yield potential, genetics, cold soil performance, seed treatments, and the benefits of gaining time in the spring.

Using real-world experience and research-backed insights, the conversation explores the risks and rewards of planting earlier and lets listeners decide if they’re convinced.

If you enjoy thoughtful debate, practical farming decisions, and honest conversations about what actually drives yield and profitability, this episode is for you.
