Replanting Crops, Common Planting Mistakes, & Singing Duets

As growers, sellers, and agronomists, what should we be watching for at this point in the spring season?  Returning guest and fan favorite, Glenn Longabaugh, joins hosts Ryan Priest and a singing Sal Sama in the podcast room for this episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies.  As the Agronomist for Premier Companies, there’s no one better to give us the lay of the land.  Just don’t ask Glenn questions about pop culture!

In this episode, you’ll hear about current planting conditions across the United States, common planting mistakes, and his thoughts about growers making emotional decisions to change rotation.  If you are considering replanting, Glenn will provide a few things to think through to make the wisest decision and tips to finish out the planting season with the best mindset possible.  There are tips for self-application, dealing with waterhemp, planting with forecasted rainfall, and upcoming planting potential.  “Too often we get spun out on these tangents of things we don’t have any control over.”

300. BioMADE’s Melanie Tomczak talks the bioeconomy future, from sustainable aviation fuel to clothing

The bioeconomy – where feedstocks from agriculture are transformed into new products – is poised to surge to more than $30 trillion dollars over the next two decades. The White House calls its potential “enormous,” and there’s an organization leading the effort to create infrastructure around this opportunity. Today, BioMADE Chief Technology Officer, Melanie Tomczak, joins us to tell us 1) what exactly the bioeconomy is, 2) the role of BioMADE in its growth and 3) the unique connection between people, plants and animals.  


Where are the greatest opportunities for growth in bioinnovation? Melanie talks cross-sector collaboration and pushing things from early-scale to commercial scale – getting entrepreneurs out of the “Valley of Death.” She also gets into creating resilience and sustainability in U.S. supply chains in a post-pandemic world also experiencing political unrest and geo instability.  


What’s ahead? BioMADE recently named six states (Indiana being one) to a short list of geographies that could fill a need that doesn’t exist in the US today: allowing innovators to start the scale-up process without the investment into new facilities, allowing for emerging technologies and products to flow through the U.S. more quickly.

Fertilizer Industry Update, Nitrogen Supply, & Historical Guest

As Ryan says, the world of fertilizer is rocked just about every day!  Returning guest Josh Linville joins hosts Sal Sama and Ryan Priest for this episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies, and as StoneX’s Vice President of Fertilizer, Josh is able to shed a ton of insight into the quickly-changing world of fertilizer.

In addition to explaining how some of the key events around the world impact fertilizer availability and prices, you’ll hear why Iran is a key country to keep your eyes on for urea availability.  He’ll also explain the domino effect that could take place if the nitrogen supply is cut off and what the overall outlook is for the supply in the United States this year.  Josh will also provide some insight into why we need to pay attention to phosphate exports from around the globe and the impacts we’d experience with a decreasing phosphate supply.  This is an episode you’re not going to want to miss!
