Jake Andrle joins us once again on Legend in the Field to break down this year’s silage data and highlight standout products. We discuss key data points, what they tell us about hybrid performance, and how growers can use those results to make informed decisions. Tune in for a closer look at the products that stood out and considerations for your silage acres next season.

In this episode of Legend in the Field, Tyler Price joins us to discuss the importance of evaluating this year's crop performance and using soil sampling results to plan for next season. From understanding soil fertility and nutrient levels to reviewing management practices and fertilizer strategies, Tyler shares insights on making informed decisions to maximize crop potential in the year ahead.

Steven Resler joins us again on Legend in the Field to talk all things soybeans! From where our soybean seed is grown to what we've been seeing in production fields this season, Steven shares updates on seed size, germplasm, and even purple beans. Plus, we take a look at what's ahead in soybean trait technology, including Bayer's Viconic, Syngenta's Expanse, and BASF's Nemasphere.

Jake Andrle joins us again on Legend in the Field as we take a closer look at how a few of our YMS products are performing in this year's testing plots. We're digging into the results we've seen so far, what we're learning in the field, and how these insights can help YOU make informed decisions for your operation.

Harvest is in full swing across the Legend Seeds footprint, and our agronomy team is back with another update from the field! From North Dakota down to Nebraska and over to Wisconsin, combines are rolling, soybeans are coming off, and growers are starting to poke around in cornfields. Tune in as our agronomists share what they're seeing across their regions, how harvest is progressing, and what trends are showing up as we make our way through the 2026 harvest season!

Well, if Steven Resler’s musical debut doesn't give it away… harvest season is here! With combines starting to roll and conditions looking a little different everywhere you go, our agronomy team is back to give us the latest from across the Legend Seeds footprint. Let’s check in on what they’re seeing in the fields, what’s coming out of the combine, and what growers should be watching as harvest gets underway!

As harvest approaches, stalk quality can change quickly, making lodging a major concern in some corn fields. In this episode, Jake Andrle breaks down what we’re seeing this season, how to scout for stalk integrity, and how lodging risk should impact harvest priority. We’ll also discuss hybrid differences and management considerations growers can take into next season to help build stronger, more resilient stands.

In this episode, Jake Andrle joins us to share a silage harvest update from the field and break down how we evaluate hybrids, biological products, and other management practices throughout the season. Jake walks us through the silage testing process, what we’ve seen so far at harvest, how the data is collected and used, and where dealers and growers can access those results to help guide future product and management decisions, specifically focusing on silage hybrids.

A short and sweet update from our Legend Sales Agronomists, who are busy putting boots on the ground in the field! Mitch Bass, Chase Schutt, Dan Olson, and Tyler Price join me for this episode to highlight some of the corn and soybean products excelling in their areas, along with a quick update on how crops are performing across the board.

In this episode of Legend in the Field, we take a closer look at TS601 from YieldMaster Solutions and what we’ve learned since its introduction. Jake Andrle and Chris Graf discuss field performance, agronomic expectations, testing results, and where TS601 fits within a broader disease management program. Most importantly, they explore what real-world plots are telling us about the product and who should be paying attention.

This episode takes a closer look at soybean diseases and what growers should be watching for as we move through the season. Dan Olson joins us to discuss the diseases showing up in fields, with a special focus on Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS), including what conditions contribute to pressure, how to identify it, and management considerations. We’ll also cover other common soybean diseases and what growers can do now to protect yield and set themselves up for future seasons.

Silage harvest timing can make a big difference in storage, fermentation and feed quality. In this episode, Jake Andrle breaks down what growers should be watching for as harvest approaches. From plant maturity and moisture levels to measuring moisture accurately and making the call when weather doesn’t cooperate. We’ll cover the risks of chopping too early or too late and how to hit the right harvest window for quality silage.

Corn leaf diseases can have a major impact on yield, and this season, growers are keeping a close eye on diseases like tar spot, southern rust, and northern corn leaf blight. In this episode, we sit down with agronomist Mitch Bass to discuss the leaf diseases showing up in fields, why tar spot has become such a significant concern, and what sets it apart from other common corn diseases. Mitch shares how to identify the early signs of these diseases, the weather and field conditions that favor their development, and practical management strategies growers can use to minimize their impact. We also look ahead at what can still be done this season to help protect yield potential and prepare for future disease pressure.

Fall seeding season is right around the corner, and getting a new alfalfa stand off to a strong start begins long before the seed goes in the ground. In this episode of Legend in the Field, we discuss what it takes to establish a successful fall-seeded alfalfa crop—from seedbed preparation and seeding rates to timing, fertility, and the management decisions that can make or break a stand before winter. Whether you're planting your first alfalfa field or looking to improve your establishment success, this conversation is packed with practical tips you can use this fall.

In this special edition of Legend in the Field, we're taking you behind the scenes at our annual Staff & Dealer Kickoff event.
