Boe Clausen is a second-generation farmer in Eastern Washington. His parents immigrated from Denmark and established Stokrose Farm in 1981. Initially focused on vegetable seed production, the farm diversified into alfalfa, hay, corn, wheat, and cattle. Boe now manages Stokrose Farm alongside his siblings. 

Boe's shift towards foliar applications, reduced nitrogen usage, and strategic nutrient management have improved crop health, reduced disease and insect pressure, and enhanced soil fertility. In 2022, he grew 250-bushel corn with only 20 lbs of nitrogen.

In this episode, Boe and John discuss:

• The role of technology in modern farming practices

• Using molybdenum, sulfur, and nitrogen foliar applications

• How cover crops and crop rotations can build soil health

• The impact of incorporating a feedlot into his operation

• Using sap analysis to guide nutrition applications

Zack Smith is a fifth-generation farmer from northern Iowa. He is the owner and operator of Smith Seed and Agronomy, LLC, and co-founder and CEO of Stock Cropper, Inc. Zack previously worked in seed production and chemical retail as a certified crop advisor and then as a seed rep while farming on the side. He eventually became interested in soil health and started experimenting with strip-tilling and using cover crops, which marked the beginning of his shift towards regenerative agricultural. Zack recently developed a system called “stock cropping,” a regenerative farming system that raises row crops in conjunction with multiple species of livestock simultaneously in the field. He and his business partners, Sheldon Stevermer and Lance Peterson, went on to develop the Cluster Cluck 5000, an autonomous, self-moving barn.

In this episode, Zack and John discuss:

• The concept of stock cropping and its benefits to plant and soil health

• Developing barns for mobile grazing that integrate multiple species of livestock

• Implementing a rotational grazing system with frequent moves to optimize animal impact and pasture utilization

• Developing high-quality pasture mixes using cool-season and warm-season species

• The importance of innovation and collaboration in advancing regenerative agriculture practices
