November Agronomy Update: Plan Now, Profit Later

Harvest is wrapping up, stalks are settling, and fields are headed into a winter pause. This is the moment to lock in your plan for next year’s corn and soybean acres. When margins are tight and inputs feel heavy, the details are what move the needle.

Our agronomy specialists are ready to walk your ground and look at the whole system with you: soil health, seed genetics, fertility, and input plans down to each quarter-acre. Getting that specific is how you protect ROI and set up real yield potential next season.

Join us December 4 with Hoober at the Fairgrounds

We’re teaming up with Hoober Incorporated on Thursday, December 4 at the Rockingham County Fairgrounds for a hands-on look at how precision data tools pair with local service to drive long-term profitability. It’s a good chance to dig into how FieldAlytics ties your yield data, zones, and prescriptions together so next year’s decisions are smarter and faster.

Winter prep that pays in spring

Use the quiet weeks to take care of the jobs that create fewer surprises and better outcomes when planters roll.

  • Finish soil sampling now. We’ll turn around a clear fertility map and get inputs lined up ahead of spring.

  • Think rotation, cover crops, and residue. Set the table for seed placement, emergence, and early vigor.

  • Meet early for best pricing. We have strong seed options for the 2026 season that are regionally tested and backed by local data.

  • Bring your questions to the December meeting. We’ll walk through how yield data feeds next year’s recs and how variable-rate nutrient plans pay back.

How we help

  • Quarter-acre planning that fits your fields, not a template

  • Local data on hybrids and varieties that actually win here

  • Fertility programs aligned with your soil tests and yield goals

  • A clean plan for products, timing, and logistics so you hit the window

Next steps

Reach out to your agronomy rep or stop by your nearest Rockingham Cooperative location to schedule a field-planning session. We look forward to working with you and building the plan now so you’re ready to hit the ground running in the spring.
