Synthetic nitrogen turns to gas, leaches, washes away and is not always in proximity to the roots and, therefore unavailable to the corn. Because it sticks to the roots and works every day – it is highly predicable.2) Pivot Bio PROVENTM is productive – light, sand soils and fields with sloping topography tend to lose more nitrogen. Most field have many soil zones and varying topography and therefore crop productivity varies widely across a field. Because it adheres directly to the roots – Pivot Bio PROVENTM levels out crop productivity across a range of conditions.3) It’s weather proof – rain does not wash it away as with synthetic nitrogen.4) All of these factors add up to improved ROI – and ROI is mission critical for growers.Introduce GuestAt Farm4Profit one of our favorite things to do is inspire others to achieve their goals, build their farm or business, and help you generate higher levels of profitability.  Whether you are young or old, I want to encourage you to grow or start your business and achieve your dreams. The most important thing to remember is that, no matter your age, if you are alive, you can achieve more.  Keep working towards your goals, work hard, stay hungry, and remember to be great.These episodes are all stemming from the feedback of our “how to grow your farm” show.  That is #24 if you didn’t catch it.  We have now talked about becoming a better leader #25, how to market your farm for growth #26, the right way to build your referral network in #27 and now today we will talk about how having a strong business acumen can benefit your farm and set it up for growth.Elliot Uphoff. @elliotuphoff.

We see others who look like they have it all worked out. They seem successful, they have the perfect social media posts, but in the real world, we are all just figuring it out.
