Dawson County has been fortunate to avoid major rain or hail damage, which has allowed for crops to grow in excellent conditions in many areas.

Don Batie, a central Nebraska farmer, has been utilizing Sentinel Fertigation to track his nitrogen levels in each yield zone of various corn fields.

Batie explains how Sentinel Fertigation has helped him stay more cognitive of his nitrogen fertilizer due to nitrate contamination.

“With a fertigation system you can get it on real quick,” said Batie.
