Welcome to another episode of The Nexus Ag Update!

In this episode, we welcome back our returning guest, Megan Solland Conservation Agronomist with Nexus. We’re also thrilled to have Joel Wipperfurth from TruTerra. Joel will share his role at TruTerra and his extensive work history in the industry.

Additionally, we’ll touch on Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and its connection to CI, the type of data needed, and the expected time frame for these initiatives. Joel and Megan will also give us a sneak peek into what’s new for TruTerra in 2025, including their latest programs and other local initiatives.
