bushel corn! One
way Mid-County continues to stay ahead
of the game and help reach maximum
yield goals is by continually researching
new products. We evaluate crop protec-
tion, plant nutrition and rescue treatments
so we can offer our customers the best
available solution that makes agronomic
sense for their operation, whether it be big
or small. We gather this information from
many different sources such as strip testing,
plot trials and independent research.
Speaking of staying ahead of the game,
right now is the perfect time to get your
liquid starter tanks ready and have us get
your product into your tanks. First, make
sure all sediment and residue is thoroughly
washed out with water, saving you the time
of a plugged up planter. If you don’t have
a strainer on your tank, now is the time to
install one. Check all tank fittings, hoses
and valves. All of this can save a costly spill
and also save you from a visit from the De-
partment of Agriculture. The state requires
anyone who spills fertilizer in the amount
greater than what is used on one acre to
report it. It goes without saying, this is an
exercise everyone wants to avoid.
Moving your seed from our warehouse
to your farm is another way to stay ahead of
the game. Make sure you have everything
you need when the planter starts rolling to
reduce any possibility of downtime.
We are always looking ahead to the
future. A couple projects we have been
working on are a bulk seed facility and ex-
panding our dry fertilizer storage. Current
changes include another Variable Rate Fer-
tilizer and Lime unit, an upgraded sprayer
for the spring, and a faster liquid fertilizer
loading system.
Looking forward to working with you
this spring!
SPRING ANHYDROUS APPLICATION – BETTER THAN EVER
What’s better than one John Deere 9560R tractor? Two John Deere 9560R tractors, of course.
This spring, Mid-County Agronomy will have two of these 560-horsepower machines avail-
able for spring anhydrous ammonia application. With two tractors and two toolbars, we’ll
be able to apply anhydrous faster, allowing farmers to get in the fields as soon as possible.
Get ready for planting season, and give Mid-County Agronomy a call
today at (952) 466-3730. Our custom applicators are looking forward
to serving you!
