At the rates of fertilizer he applied it is certainly extremely profitable. His inputs are not a lot higher than we have here in idaho but his yield is 75-100 bushels better thanwhat we do. I'd gladly raise my input cost to those levels if I could acheive 250 bushels per acre. I don't know what fertilizer costs are in new zealand but doing the math here that would be what looks like $1 increased cost = $2.50 increased output
I have a stupid question for you. I stumbled upon a small patch of wheat growing wild along a local river a few years ago. The seeds tasted exactly like Wheaties cereal. It was delicious! None of the wheat grown locally is as large as that wild patch I found, nor does any of it have that delicious flavor. From this horrible description, can anyone tell me what variety of wheat the wild wheat may have been? Thank you!
Well theres no doubt you can reach 18 tonnes or more per ha with an irrigation system. Thats not reachable without having one. You could never have a crop with 1000 heads /m2. Good crops end at about 650 heads.
Mr Watson spoke at a meeting that I attended in USA a few years ago. His situation in NZ is unique & not same as mine or yours, but in general: Seeding lower rates slightly earlier than normal for the area. Fertilizing only when needed, until stem elongation begins, and then apply most of the fertilizer. Use fungicides to control diseases & growth regulators to make stems strong & standing. Mostly follow your local recommendations, seed earlier & fertilize N later.
I need to add, only make small adjustments to your program... don't make big mistakes. Try a week or 10 days early or late & extra 25 lb/AC or kg/ha fertilizer. Experiment small before changing across the entire farm.
The high yield with mutations and generic changes gives increased diabetes in the world as these noble scientists never or government did not bother to study risk of these high production.Only farmers made money and others visit doctors to pay fees.
While it is trendy to say GMO crops cause health problems in humans it is actually factually incorrect. As proven by numerous studies. In fact not a single study has been produced world wide linking an increase in cancer, obesity, diabetes, kidney disease, gastrointestinal problems, celiac disease, autism, or even food allergies. Don’t take my word for it look it up yourself. Harvard School of Medicine, MD Anderson Cancer Research Institute, and many others back this up using scientific research.
Great info. Would like to see how his soil analysis looked like before seeding.
Amazing results. Also wanted to know this farmers soil culture, because i feel that it might be another reason apart from all the input.
Yield is meaningless. What is the net profit per Ha?

Good job 👏
Would sure like to see the fertilizer rates and composition to get those yields
Eric comes from God’s county. Such awesome yields.

I believe it's made with just hard red wheat. I used to eat it off the combine and has the same flavor as wheaties.

Sir I ask record weaht how many seed per acre pH n k per acer from pakistan

You're using 6times more nitrogen than what we use here in India 😲
How many seeds/Acer?
65 pounds per acre. Must be a large seed because in another video he said 500,000 seeds per acre.
well thats a low protein wheat
