It’s time for the season finale of Ontario Diagnostic Days!

On this live broadcast, University of Guelph professors Dave Hooker and Francois Tardif join host Shaun Haney to talk three hot topics that are sure to grab growers' attention, as we look forward to the 2022 crop year.

Haney and Hooker kick off the show with a look at the state of fertilizer supply and demand and the significant cost growers could face in 2022 when feeding their crops. Hooker then digs into research work on phosphorus and potassium and soil test levels, to determine how investing in these nutrients makes sense for 2022 corn and soybeans.

Nitrogen is also up for discussion. Hooker looks at the importance of rate and timing, split applications, and how growers could reduce environmental losses with help from nitrogen inhibitors and stabilizers.

Tardif then joins Haney to look at the continuing spread of herbicide-resistant weeds across Ontario, discussing how waterhemp has spread dramatically, as well as the relentless march of glyphosate-resistant Canada fleabane. He also discusses the potential for the dreaded Palmer amaranth to migrate north to Ontario.
