1. Planting is the most important pass we make with any of our equipment. Position the right seed, on the right acre, at the right rate, at the right depth, at the right time.

2. Consider applying non-limiting nitrogen reference strips in every corn field.

3. Scout for pests, and apply timely treatments.

4. Monitor for misapplications and costly mistakes. (A tank contamination or mistake mix can cause bleaching, striping and other issues.)

5. Trust but verify new products. There are so many products from biologicals to stabilizers, but it's really important to run tests and verify that the products work. Leave check strips, and verify ROI.

During the conversation with hosts Carl Joern and Brian Shrader, Regg mentions a couple of Pioneer resources including a scouting calendar and a corn disease tracker:
