I feel like there's got to be somewhat of a range or area that is your(not specifically you) goal to have them at. That'd be like me asking what your break even is for bu/A and you say that number doesn't exist because corn price, basis and possible expenses are always changing. You most likely have a narrowed down goal or range that you need.

I took his last post about at VT-R1 timing as a look at the growing season and if we did everything right or should've added more of X because now the plant is lacking.

Also, easymoney I did like your idea of looking for red flags on samples. That made sense to me and seems like a good practice. But what exactly makes it a "red flag"? Is it a low number or a high number or just something that looks off? Genuinely asking


There are some numbers out there. But they're a very very broad range to be a diagnostic tool to find deficiency. You're basically shooting at a round bale not shooting at a quarter.

There is absolutely no data out there that says you have to be at this tight little range to make this yield or move to this parts per million to get this crop response.

If that data existed it would have been in the original post. This wouldn't even be a topic to be honest because you would have that data.


The data can never exist. With all the variables that can happen, how will you ever get to a spot where you can say 10 parts per million on zinc is going to give you this kind of yield.
