I See Dead Plants Podcast

🎙️ New Podcast Episode! What does it take to build a successful Extension program from the ground up—twice? In this episode, we sit down with an Dr. Rachel Vann @IlliniCrops of the University of Illinois who shares the challenges, lessons, and opportunities that come with launching programs at two universities in very different regions of the United States. From understanding local agricultural needs and building relationships with stakeholders to adapting outreach strategies for different cropping systems and communities, this conversation offers an inside look at what it takes to make Extension successful. Whether you're involved in Extension, research, or agriculture, you'll gain valuable insights into the people, partnerships, and persistence behind impactful outreach programs. 🎧 Listen now: Spotify:[open.spotify.com/episode/2dNV8a…] Apple Podcasts: [podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s5-…] YouTube: [@CropProtectionNetwork" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@CropProtectio…] #Extension #LandGrantUniversity #ScienceForSuccess #Agriculture #AgEducation #Outreach #PlantScience #AgPodcast @CropNetwork @ncipmc @SoybeanScience1

🪱🔬💻🎙️ New Podcast Episode! What happens when cutting-edge technology meets one of agriculture's most important microscopic pests? In this episode, we explore how researchers are using machine learning, artificial intelligence, advanced imaging, and even 3D printingto revolutionize the way we study plant-parasitic nematodes. From collecting better data to creating new tools for research, these technologies are helping scientists uncover insights that were once impossible to see. Join us as we discuss the future of nematology and how innovation is transforming our understanding of these hidden threats beneath our feet. 🎧 Listen now: Spotify: [open.spotify.com/episode/6JmRHL…] Apple Podcasts: [podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s5-…] YouTube: [@CropProtectionNetwork" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">youtube.com/@CropProtectio…] #Nematology #PlantPathology #MachineLearning #ArtificialIntelligence #AgTech #3DPrinting #PlantScience #Agriculture #AgPodcast @CropNetwork @ncipmc @Seb_EvdA @camplantsci

🚁🌾🎙️ New Podcast Episode: Spray Drones Part 2! Are spray drones the future of agriculture—or are we still working through the growing pains? In Part 2 of our conversation with spray application expert @nozzle_guy , we take a deeper look at the realities of drone spraying. We discuss herbicide resistance, application uniformity, drone economics, and the situations where spray drones truly shine—from inaccessible field areas and flooded low spots to rights-of-way management and invasive species control. We also tackle the big questions: 🔹Are spray drones ready for large-scale agriculture? 🔹How should we evaluate new agricultural technologies? 🔹What does the future of spray drones look like? Whether you're excited about the technology or skeptical of the hype, this episode offers a thoughtful, evidence-based discussion on one of agriculture's fastest-growing tools. 🎧 Listen now: Spotify: [open.spotify.com/episode/02Djul…] Apple Podcasts: [podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/s5-…] YouTube: [youtube.com/watch?v=kLH7jm…] #SprayDrones #AgTech #PrecisionAgriculture #CropProtection #Agronomy #PlantScience #Agriculture #AgPodcast #DroneTechnology @CropNetwork @ncipmc
