NASHVILLE, Tenn. (RFD-TV) — As producers weigh current farmland market trends, many are reconsidering how many acres to devote to corn versus soybeans next season. That choice — especially for farmers considering planting corn-on-corn rather than following soybeans — can significantly influence fertilizer and nutrient requirements.
Tryston Beyrer with The Mosaic Company joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to offer guidance for growers evaluating their 2026 crop plans.
In his conversation with RFD-TV News, Beyrer outlined why corn-on-corn acres carry unique nutrient demands compared to corn planted after soybeans and what farmers should keep in mind when making those decisions. He also discussed why cutting back on fertility in a tight-margin environment can ultimately cost more in the long run and explained what producers can do now to ensure their corn-on-corn acres have the nutrition needed to meet yield goals.
Beyrer further highlighted strategies farmers can use to maximize their fertilizer investment and make every input dollar count in the upcoming growing season.
The new rule removes prevented-plant buy-up coverage, prompting strong objections from farm groups concerned about added risk exposure.
