Spring Cleaning Tips
Jenny Phillips, Director of Marketing • April 7, 2026

SEED


  • Place seed in the barn by your intended planting order.
  • Put a piece of paper on the bags or boxes with the intended field name and population that you intend to plant.
  • Double check your acres with your delivered seed and planting populations to ensure you have enough.

CHEMISTRY


  • Stage chemistry products in your barn by both crop and application.
  • Some product totes look similar. Ensure product labels are facing outward, in your line of sight, and similar looking labels/totes are not stacked together by mistake.
  • Recirculate ALL chemistry totes prior to use.
  • Calibrate pumps and meters close to the time of use. The viscosity of chemistry changes as the temperature changes and will alter your calibration.
  • Clean all pumps and meters with TripleRinse tank cleaner to ensure no residues are left behind.
  • TripleRinse tank cleaner and FoamAway defoamer. Do you have a case of each?
  • Do you have enough chemistry products for your acres and use rate of each product? Double check all math.
  • Prior to spraying, ensure all screens/nozzles have been thoroughly cleaned and the sprayer triple rinsed with TripleRinse tank cleaner.

NUTRITIONAL PRODUCTS


  • Prior to bulk delivery of YieldStarters or YieldBuilder foliars, bulk tanks must be thoroughly emptied and cleaned if they were used for 28% or Thio-Sul in the past. No 28% or Thio-Sul can be left in the tank at all. Vitaliz cannot come in contact with UAN.
  • If planter pumps/lines were winterized with UAN or anti-freeze, thoroughly clean out both pumps and lines prior to putting row starter products in your planter tanks.
  • Check and clean all screens on your planter
  • Recirculate fertilizer totes prior to use. Bubble or recirculate bulk nutritional tanks to prevent any settling of raw ingredients. This is especially important if you took Fall delivery of these products.
  • On your tender trailer, if using both 2x2 and in-furrow, ensure that plumbing is done in such a way to not have UAN come in contact with your in-furrow YieldStarters.
  • Double check your use rates and acres with delivered product to ensure you have enough.

There’s still fertility sitting in that corn residue. DECOMP™ is designed to help put more of it back to work.  DECOMP is a complete biological residue-management system that works to accelerate the breakdown of stal ks, leaves and root balls while moving crop-bound fertility back into active nutrient cycling. And the latest data gives us a closer look at what that can mean. In a Michigan leachate study, corn residue treated with DECOMP showed higher captured levels of potassium, phosphorus and nitrogen after 30–60 days compared to untreated residue. Replicated corn-after-corn research has also shown a +10 bu./A yield response across a two-year dataset. The goal isn't just residue that disappears faster. It's breaking down lignin, releasing held nutrients and creating better planting conditions for the crop that follows. Get more from the fertility you've already paid for. Talk with your Yield Innovations Consultant about w here DECOMP fits this fall.

NanoBond is built on advanced nanotechnology designed to keep essential elements stable, soluble, and available for plant uptake. Traditional formulations often become tied up in the soil or tank, reducing their efficiency before they ever reach the plant. NanoBond prevents that loss by working at the molecular level.
