RealAg Radio, Feb 6: Corn Emergence Timing, Meeting Malt, Perennial Wheat & the Lesser of the Weevils

On the heels of Super Bowl Sunday, it’s an info-packed Agronomy Monday on RealAg Radio, including:

• a discussion with Alberta barley growers Scott Keller and Wade McKallister on the keys to consistently making malt with your barley.
• Scott Meers of Alberta Agriculture (and Forestry, but don’t ask him about forestry) chats with Lyndsey about the three main weevil pests in Western Canada.
• Peter Johnson shares what he learned in 2016 about the relationship between corn emergence timing and yield.
• The “A-Team” of Aaron Stevanus and Aaron Breimer discuss their findings from 2016 how precision planting variables affect profitability.
• And we wrap up with an interesting conversation about the prospects for perennial wheat with AAFC research scientist Jamie Larsen.
