Weed Control, Crop Maintenance, & Driving Spouse Crazy

We’ve got vines already starting to grow and ragweed up to the interns’ armpits! How much money are we supposed to spend on this? Special guest Glenn Longabaugh is in the house today! He joins hosts Ryan Priest and Sal Sama back in the podcast room for today’s episode of The High Ground powered by Premier Companies. You don’t have to be around the podcast too long to know that Glenn is the Agronomist for Premier Companies, and he’s here to share why it’s time for growers to start to transition from the mindset where everything revolves around planting to actual maintenance of the crop.

It’s no secret that planting has been delayed and weed growth is accelerated. Many are feeling that there’s much that’s due simultaneously including weeds that are getting away from us, side-dressing, burndown, nutritionals, and more! In light of that, Glenn will share his thoughts around fungicide application, timing, and how that will help position us for a strong season in the long run. All growers are asking how we can make “the mostest from the leastest,” and Glenn’s got some tips to help you get the biggest bang for your buck, both economically and for the environment. This is another episode you’re not going to want to miss!

304. Atarraya’s Daniel Russek on real sustainability, innovation in aquaculture and bringing food production back to its natural cycle

Innovation in the agbiosciences is foundational to life – and it’s only accelerating. From biotech to production, food is transforming; and today’s guest is leading the charge on a new way of producing protein. Daniel Russek, CEO of Atarraya, joins us to talk the idea of sustainability, what it actually is and thinking long-term to achieve meaningful outcomes in this space.

From greenwashing to social media allowing people to be “kind of informed” about the state of the planet, Daniel says sustainability has to coexist with strong economics. He dives into how he sees the future of food and Atarraya tackling the fastest-growing source of protein: shrimp.

Atarraya’s innovation in aquaculture has been evolving for over a decade at this point and Daniel talks about the best resource for developing their technology: conversations with people. And it’s paid off. TIME Magazine named Atarraya one of the top 200 inventions of the year. The team also was a gold recipient of The Edison Award; with all this momentum, where do they go next?

Daniel talks expanding production, the importance of partnerships and bringing food production back into its natural cycle.
