Shianne Reynolds from BranValt, formerly Bushel Plus, joins the podcast to talk about what’s flying out the back of your combine, and why you might want to get that back up into the hopper. We get into harvest loss, the brief discography of the band A-ha, pro-tips for starting a garden, and SmartPans, the technology BranValt is using to take the guesswork out of combine performance, and just how quickly a few kernels on the ground starts adding up to real losses for the bottom line of your operation.    Order yourself the coffee that fuels our podcast!

Part two of our conversation with AgZen CEO and co-founder Vishnu Jayaprakash, where we get more in-depth with RealCoverage; the technology that takes the guesswork out of spraying by showing what's actually making it onto the plant and offering recommendations to improve coverage. From integrated fleet management tools to how the ROI pencils out, we get way into the weeds on RealCoverage, and naturally, a good ways off the rails along the way.   Order yourself the coffee that fuels our podcast!

AgZen CEO and co-founder Vishnu Jayaprakash joins the podcast to talk RealCoverage; a technology that takes the guesswork out of spraying by showing what’s actually making it onto the plant. From taking many unfortunate showers spraying mango trees, to inventing the first closed-loop feedback system for sprayer operators: we dig into how it works, what growers are learning from it, and why better coverage can mean better results with fewer inputs.   Order yourself the coffee that fuels our podcast!

She What?! Anne Anderson joins the podcast to talk MY27 updates for 6-series tractors, and at no point in this episode is it mentioned, even in the slightest, that she is the sister of one of the hosts of the podcast. Were we overdue for a familial episode? Absolutely. Is the 6-Series tractor lineup tap-dancing the line between utility and row-crop? Feels redundant to say 'Absolutely' again. Did Anne beat Sam up for a significant portion of their childhood? For the sake of not saying 'Absolutely" again, we'll just say 'Yes.'    Order yourself the coffee that fuels our podcast!
