Planning on seeding a winter cover crop? Here are a few tips to get started. ? Ensure timely planting: Most cover crops need at least 30 days of growth before a hard frost to be effective, and many require 60 days or more days for maximum benefits. ? Find the right mix: Define the goal of your cover crop, whether it’s soil aeration, erosion control or nutrient building. Then, build a cover crop mix to match. ? Plan a termination strategy: Non-winter hardy cover crops like oats will die over the winter, leaving less residue to manage in the spring than winter-dormant crops like cereal rye. #CoverCrops #SoilHealth #UpTerra

Bare soil suffers a tremendous decrease in soil health and structure over the winter ?? Adding a winter forage crop, like triticale, not only supplies high-quality feed but also helps reduce erosion, retain moisture and protect soil structure. When paired with the UpTerra System, your triticale crop becomes a true soil health hero. #WinterForage #UpTerraResults #TriticaleQuality

One common question we get is how to power the coil if there’s no plug nearby—simple, you can use a battery! Young farmers like Cooper are paving the way for sustainable agriculture, and we’re thrilled to support them with tools that optimize crop health and boost resilience. Here’s Cooper’s organic soybean crop! ?? · What is your favorite Ag innovation? · #InTheField #OrganicFarming #AgInnovation #UpTerraResults

Soil moisture data shows how the UpTerra System drives more yield: ? Greater soil moisture retention · UpTerra-treated soil retains moisture from wetting events longer · ? More consistent plant uptake · More gradual peaks and valleys show moisture on treated fields is staying in the root zone for plant uptake · ? More moisture availability · Treated soil remains within the optimal moisture availability range throughout the season · #SoilMoisture #UpTerraResults #YieldOptimization #WaterEfficiency

What’s In the Soil? ?? ?? Want to visit the most biodiverse place on Earth? Just step out your front door, and you’re there! A recent article published by PNAS estimates that soil is likely home to 59% of life, including everything from microbes to mammals, making it the singular most biodiverse habitat on Earth. ?? ??

Benefits of Satellite Imagery for Farming ?? With the support of AI technology, satellite imagery now offers more utility than ever on the farm. ? Disease scouting - Hone in on individual plant lesions with high-definition imagery ? Stand counts - Evaluate emergence and plant stand uniformity ? Weed detection - Identify weed hotspots and assess overall weed control in fields ? Insect identification - Survey pest pressure and crop damage throughout the season ? Irrigation efficiency - Recognize irrigation issues before they lead to yield loss ? Nutrient deficiency - Assess crop health during key growth stages ? Harvest planning - Plan harvest schedules based on crop dry-down estimates ? Field trends - Track field trends and areas of concern over time ? 24/7 field monitoring - Monitor fields remotely anytime, anywhere ?? #agtech #AIforAg #precisionfarming

In the field with Brett in Colorado, seeing firsthand the difference UpTerra’s optimized water can make. This crop was 100% irrigated with enhanced water, and the results speak for themselves—34.3 tons per acre! It’s amazing to see it all come together. #InTheField #UpTerraResults #HarvestSeason #CornHarvest #coloradolife

Commercial Ag often prioritizes crop-centric solutions, feeding plants with synthetic fertilizers and protecting them with costly chemicals. But what if we flipped the script and prioritized the soil? Imagine boosting microbial activity, enhancing soil structure, increasing water retention, and preserving precious topsoil. Could crops sustain themselves if we focused on the soil instead? At UpTerra, we think so. We’re on a mission to help farmers do more with less, and it all starts with water ?? #SoilHealth #RegenerativeFarming #UpTerra #ItAllStartsWithWater
