Episode description

The results of the National Wheat Yield contest are in, and the winners represent those producers who were able to roll with the punches during one of the toughest years in living memory. There were definitely surprises; from winners in unusual wheat geographies to unexpectedly good protein levels, but the common thread around intensive management was clear. 

DTN staff reporter Emily Unglesbee joins us today to discuss more of the details around these top farmers, and to dig in on conditions, markets, and what might be ahead in the 2022 season. 

We’ll also hear her update from Commodity Classic, where she had a front row seat to some of the latest announcements around weed-killing technologies and seed trait advances. We’ll dive deep on where the technology is heading, and when farmers might be able to start using the latest tools.
