Agronomy Meets Basketball
Episode description
Agronomy and basketball coaches have more in common than you may think....
A coach is to help an individual or their team grow.
It's not always encouragement.....
Sometimes it's being kind of strict, pushing them, knowing what their boundaries are, what they can, what they can't do, and what they're not ready to do.
The perfect example of that would be when you introduce producers into variable rates for their first time or try a new prescription.
Just like the players on the court, a coach guides them into new realms and techniques.
Lance Lindbloom does just that with 406 Agronomy!
Tune in as Dan and Lance dive into how bringing together competition and producers in the same room, can bring home the trophy for the future of ag.
