Jason and David talk about the early season drought many are experiencing from a systems and functional soil health approach. What's the best timing for roller crimp terminating in a drought? Plants fix dirt! How to win during the next drought or flood through resilience. Cover crops and drought. Using the Soil Talker (ST-1) to test in-field microbial abundance. Using amino acid chelated foliar nutrition to increase root exudates and photoshynthetic efficiency. They discuss Revive DT, Drop-Tine's approach to restoring fertility in the soils through plants.

DROUGHT! A functional soil health perspective

Jason talks with Paul Brown of Brown's Ranch and Nourished by Nature near Bismarck, ND about a CO2 pipeline that threatens soil health and ecosystem function on some of America's most pristine private land.  Proposed by bureauctrats and big industry, could this serve as a proof of concept for a C02 pipeline near you?  Is the name of the game eminent domain while wasting tax payer dollars to support politicians and failed government policies?  Why are steaks from Brown's Ranch so damn good?

Don Huber

87 year-old Glyphosate researcher, plant pathologist, retired U.S. Army Col. and Emeritus Professor (Purdue Univ)., Dr. Don Huber has been shot at, stabbed and beaten to a pulp during his storied investigative career merely because of his long-time involvement in research on the impacts of Glyphosate (RoundUp) on plant nutrition, disease and health.  Hits have been taken out on him by researchers and industry thugs who are in the tank (follow the $$$) with large multinational organizations and the makers of synthetic chemicals such as RoundUp.  Jason proposes a broad spectrum of topics surrounding the Glyphosate/Roundup discourse including the science-based research that links Glyphosate, as a broad spectrum mineral chelator and gut/soil disrupting antibioic, to Chronic Wasting Disease in white-tailed deer.

Jason and "guest host-client-friend" Joe Switzer talk with Dr. Rick Haney about soil testing and all things soil health. The guys share their stories about why lime becomes unnecessary as the plant-microbe interaction mediates the soil pH in and around the root rhizoshpere. Oh, and Jason talks about propolis spray and Moscow mules!

As state agencies target bans on commercial urine and attractants, Jason engages in conversation with one of the nations leading biochemists, Dr. Davin Henderson, on the fact that the real science lacks a single case where deer were infected with CWD by giving them urine. Although A recent Pennsylvania Game Commission vote on a urine ban died on the vine with a 4-4 tie, Commissioners promise to keep trying. We ask: Where's the science to support your claims?

David Montgomery

Jason talks in depth with Dr. David Montgomery about the relationship between soil health and food plot nutrient density. Listen as Jason and Dave entertain the underappreciated topic of food plot quantity vs. quality. Are we spending too much time worrying about what (and how much tonnage) we plant for deer while ignoring HOW we're growing our food plots? Soil health = nutrient density = healthy white-tailed deer.

Jason talks with Dr. Bronson Strickland and Dr. Rick Haney about why his alma mater, Mississippi State University, should study the impact of of soil health &amp; conservation agriculture on food plot forage nutrient density, soil organic matter, crop nutritional profile, vitamin/mineral content and phytochemical richness. Is this the beginning of something HUGE?

Marcus Lashley

Jason and Tim talk with Dr. Marcus Lashley to set the record straight on hinge cutting and the hot new topic of "mineral stumps" for deer. The discussion compares the most popular habitat improvement projects that every landowner can tackle: mineral stumps, hinge cutting and hack and squirt. The "deer guys" discuss when to apply each practice and Dr. Lashley shares his ground breaking research showing massive upregulation of key antler growing nutrients from the roots of freshly cut trees to the mineral sprouts are readily accessible to deer.  The why, when, how and science behind mineral stumping for deer. Increasing carrying capacity for deer.

From Tuscaloosa Alabama, two of Jason's friends and fellow Wildlife Biologists join in to talk about food plotting in better soils.  The guys talk about the very old technique of no-till farming, cover cropping and the popular book published in 1992, Farming in Nature's Image; AKA "Eco-Farming", The guys go back 300 years when Bison herds roamed the plains and the organic soil health was optimal for our immigrant ancestors. Over the years, those soils have been depleted with conventional European farming practices leading to the cry for a "new" approach to food plotting.  Better soils = better nutrition = bigger bucks!

Temple, TX. The standard chemical soil test completely ignores the organic forms of expensive fertilizer inputs and the microbiology: Organic C, Organic N, Respiration. If your corn food plot only needs 66-0-0 to produce 150 bushels/acre why would the soil lab recommend you spend your money on 126-0-188? It's commonly said that soil testing is inexpensive. Jason argues that standard soil testing is costing us much more! Listen in as Jason talks with Dr. Rick Haney about gaining confidence in your soil biology.

Will the standard (chemical) soil testing procedure become a thing of the past? Why aren't we considering soil biology and existing soil credits? Are fertilizer companies capitalizing on food plotters who think they NEED more fertilizer than they actually do. Best time to collect samples, are wet soils yielding inaccurate results.
