About this episode
Alex Noll , a farmer whose operation has earned national recognition for both corn and wheat yields, shares how he achieved a remarkable 340.39 bu/acre corn yield and consistent top finishes in dryland wheat. Alex explains his crop rotation strategy—especially how following wheat can boost corn and soybean yields by 5–8% and grain sorghum by nearly 30 bu/acre in dry conditions—and how he balances contest-level ambition with economic reality. Matt , another Kansas producer, joins the conversation to highlight the practical side of yield pursuit: evaluating inputs by “yield-per-dollar,” tracking field data, and using AgXplore tools to guide smarter investments. Representing AgXplore , Jenna breaks down the agronomic science behind products like GroPak AI, Architech, Onward Max, and XR5 Sulfur , explaining how they enhance nutrient uptake, stress tolerance, and root vigor in clear, farmer-friendly terms. She also discusses how AgXplore’s reps and data platforms help farmers evaluate ROI and build customized fertility programs tailored to their operations. Together, the group explores: When to invest and when to hold back —and how to make that call using real data. How contest-level practices can inform everyday farming decisions without breaking the bank. Balancing high yields with soil and biological health , ensuring long-term sustainability. Planning for 2026 , from refining rotations to leveraging field trials and digital tools for next season’s edge. This episode is a blueprint for farmers looking to elevate their yield game—grounded in practical experience, data-driven decisions, and the support of agronomic partners who understand that profit isn’t just about bushels, it’s about balance.
