In this hot and humid Iowa summer, we share updates on our hay making, crop conditions, and innovative approaches to foliar feeding crops with precise nutrient mixtures. We discuss how we're transitioning to drone technology for better application of nutrients while reducing compaction and crop damage.
• Corn is looking good at V10 stage and standing over 6½ feet tall
• Moving to drone technology for foliar feeding and fungicide application
• Using targeted nutrition based on tissue samples rather than blanket applications
• Copper serves as a natural fungicide while sugar acts as a natural insecticide
• Dr. Leah visited an integrative medicine clinic in Wisconsin to connect with other healers
• Discussing parallels between physician burnout and farmer stress
• Building community connections to combat isolation in both professions
• Home garden providing abundant produce with potential for a small farm stand
