320. Rumin8’s Dr. Lucas Huntimer on durability, sustainability + the decarbonization of 100 million cows by 2030

September 9, 2024 4:00 am|

Sustainability in agbioscience requires two key inputs: environment and economics. Today we are joined by Rumin8’s head of research and develoment, Dr. Lucas Huntimer, to talk economic durability, sustainability and how his team aims to decarbonize 100 million cows by 2030.

Lucas dives into the challenge at hand – methane – and Rumin8’s differentiated approach to innovating in this space. Rather than focusing on methane knockdown, their team is redirecting methane emission back into productivity, returning investment back to the producer.

With an uptick in innovation happening in this space, we had to ask: why now? Lucas talks through the rise in focus surrounding cattle, their bold mission to decarbonize 100 million cows by 2030 and the hurdles they’ll face to get there, from regulatory to capital.

Fungicide Applications, Cover Crops, & When I Was Your Age

How should you time your nutritional and fungicide applications? To shed insight on that topic on this episode of the High Ground powered by Premier Companies, Glenn Longabaugh joins Sal Sama, VP of Agronomy Sales and Marketing and Jeff Jarrett, VP of New Business Ventures and Fertilizer for Premier Ag. Unless you’re brand new to the podcast, you already know and love Glenn, who is the Agronomist for Premier Companies.

Glenn will share his thoughts about the current state of our crops and why certain soilborne pathogens including brown stem rot and red crown rot can’t be influenced much by fungicides and how they can cause significant yield loss. You’ll also hear about the ideal application and timing of fungicides and nutritionals on soybeans and how Premier account reps can help growers figure out the correct timing for their fields. “If we can do what’s best for the crop, it’ll almost always make the grower more money.”
