In this episode of The Granary, the conversation at the table gets real about one of the biggest dilemmas in farming—should your fields be pretty or profitable?
Damian Mason is joined by XtremeAg’s Matt Miles, Temple Rhodes, and Chad Henderson, and Tommy Roach from Nachurs to break down why the best-looking fields don’t always bring in the best returns.
With commodity prices tightening, the guys discuss how some farmers may need to swallow their pride and embrace a little "ugly farming" to stay profitable. They touch on cutting unnecessary field passes, adjusting fertility programs, and managing weeds differently—all while keeping landowners in the loop when changing farm practices. The team also digs into cover crops, conservation tillage, and how to manage soybean stress for maximum yields.
Whether it’s the pressure to impress at field days or keeping landowners happy by maintaining "pretty" fields, the reality is that farming is evolving. Sustainability, efficiency, and profitability are taking center stage—even if it means your fields don’t look like a magazine cover.
Grab a drink, pull up a chair, and join the discussion—because the future of farming might not look the way you think!
This episode of the Granary is brought to you by the good people at Nachurs.
