What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
Farming comes with trade-offs. An extra pass means dinner in the cab. An early morning becomes a late night. Unnecessary restrictions turn into headaches. But when you make Enlist Herbicides the foundation of your herbicide program, the trade-offs will be in your favor. Effective weed control that's ready to work when you are. Flexible tank mix options and neighbor-friendly applications. All without the need to jump through hoops. See what you'll gain with America's most trusted herbicide system protecting your Enlist E3 soybean fields at Enlist.com. Why should you, as a farmer, choose Steinbauer over our competitors? At Steinbauer, we believe in research and development. We believe in having a US base of operations with sales staff, technical staff, and a support team that can help you make the right decision and tune your engine correctly and safely.
You know, make step changes, make advancements. We've got nurseries in Florida that, you know, so we can do year-round winter nurseries. To not only to, let's say, take some lines that are proven performers. You know, we don't bring a parent line into our lineup unless it's a proven performer. We call them million acre marks. You know, if we got some parent lines that have been on acres and hybrids over a million acres, there's something there, right? So there's some proven past performance.
Ladies and gentlemen, farmers, ranchers, and distinguished guests, thank you for listening to the Farm for Profit podcast, where we discuss the latest ideas, methods, trends, and techniques available to help your farm achieve higher levels of farm profitability. Remember, if you aren't farming for profit, you won't be farming for long.
It's time for another farm. I looked over there. The camera is not. Swing and a miss. Swing and a miss. I'm trying so hard in the new year to open these shows in a different fashion. We want to say happy belated birthday to Dave. Mr. Whitaker had his birthday yesterday. If you picked this out on the first day the episode got dropped. 49? He's 48 and a half.
Yeah, something like that.
Just old.
That's old.
Just old. Really old. Yeah. Congratulations, Dave. Another trip around the sun. Appreciate you on the podcast. Listeners, we appreciate you tuning in. Man, I am so used to the camera being... Just look there. Just look there. None of you care unless you're watching on Spotify and YouTube, which is where you should be. A lot of people do. And if you have not subscribed on YouTube, go do that. Yeah.
This year, we need a whole lot more subscribers. Yep. Yeah, we get a lot of engagement, a lot of views. And I have noticed it's like, people don't follow anymore. They just watch. And I think other creators have actually talked to us about that.
Yep. It helps us out, really does. But the main thing that provides value is if you leave a comment, a review, or you send an email to connect at farmforprofit.com, that's how we get introduced to topics and guests like we did today. My goal out of this episode today is not necessarily to promote any one seed option when it comes to making decisions, but to educate our audience on the variety of different seed purchasing options. Is that an accurate statement? That's your goal.
Will we accomplish that? I don't know because I don't sell this seat, so I don't know if I should be sitting on this one, but here I am.
I think this is going to kick off kind of a January that is full of ways to potentially provide our listeners with a lot of options. We want to make sure that you are armed with the understanding that you don't have to do it the way it always has been done. If it's working, great, do it. But if you're curious, listen in. Seed curious. Seed curious. Seed starts with an S. A little nugget for you.
That's going to be previous to, that's a pre-nugget for another show.
We've done a really good job. The next three shows, there's nuggets in each one of them to keep you. There's a prize if you pick up all the nuggets. But welcome to the podcast. We've got Nate Belcher. He is the co-founder of Hybrid 85.
