Good Afternoon!

Earlier this afternoon we sent out an email about some upcoming changes for manure management plans! Whether you are a client now, a past client, or maybe someone new we just wanted to take a moment to share with you!

Notice: Important Update Regarding Manure Nutrient Estimates

We want to inform you of an important regulatory change that takes effect immediately.

Beginning December 2025, the DNR will no longer accept the Minnesota study related to nutrient availability in manure. This means we can no longer use the previous estimate that 70–80% of nitrogen and phosphorus is available in the pit. Instead, we are now required to follow Iowa State University’s data, which states that 90–100% of nitrogen and phosphorus is available.

Because of this change, you may notice a reduction in the amount of manure you’re allowed to apply per acre in your nutrient management plan. In some cases, this may also create a need for additional acres.

To help with this transition, we have been exploring several solutions. At this time, the two most effective options are:
- Using updated manure analysis data
- Incorporating proven crop insurance yields
We’ll review these strategies in more detail as we reach out for your upcoming plans. You are also welcome to contact us any time to discuss what may work best for your operation.

New for 2026: Opportunities to save by bundling services

Clients who use Knee Deep for their MMPs and Legacy Ag for soil sampling will receive manure sampling and analysis at no cost. Samples will be collected in the summer, before our busy fall soil sampling season.

To receive manure sampling at no cost, you must confirm bundled services prior to soil sampling so we can note it in our system. If bundling is not confirmed before sampling occurs, manure sampling will be billed at standard rates.

This service provides a valuable opportunity to understand your pit’s nutrient levels heading into harvest and pumping season, while also saving money when bundling services.

Thank you for your continued trust and support. We look forward to speaking with you soon and helping ensure a smooth transition with these new requirements.

🍂 Happy Thanksgiving from Knee Deep Solutions! 🦃

As we gather with family and friends this season, our team at Knee Deep Solutions wants to share our heartfelt gratitude for the growers, partners, and community who make our work possible.

This year, we’re especially thankful for the strong relationships we’ve built across Southeast Iowa—and for the exciting road ahead as we settle into our place with the Legacy Ag Solutions family as of fall 2025. With this transition, one thing remains the same: our commitment to serving you with honesty, experience, and field-tested insight.

With the merger into Legacy Ag Solutions, LLC, you can count on us to stay locally owned and locally operated right here in Washington, Iowa. Our team isn’t going anywhere—your familiar faces, trusted contacts, and the dependable service you rely on will remain exactly the same.

We’re grateful for the opportunity to continue supporting your operation, standing behind practical, proven methods, and bringing real-world experience to the ag industry.

Thank you for your loyalty, your trust, and the way you show up for your land, your families, and your communities. We’re proud to stand with you—and excited for all the good work still ahead.

From all of us at Knee Deep Solutions:
Have a safe, joyful, and abundant Thanksgiving! 🍁

Hunter has been busy judging livestock shows - even ended up judging Governor Reynold’s grandkids’ cattle. No pressure right?

Safe to say, we’re on the Governor’s good side…or at least we better be!😁

Did you know......Taylor runs the (sh*t) show? She's been the office manager officially since October 1. Taylor is an exceptional leader, she's a blast to talk to, and she has a criminal justice degree with background in law? And one more thing - she runs a killer bakery.

We heard today is Boss’ Day!!

So a shout out to our fearless leader felt necessary, we could go on and on about her, but she’d hate that. Instead, we’ll tell you a dad joke in her honor!

Why did the pig dump her boyfriend?? Because he was a real BOAR 🐖🐽🐷

Ready Player 1

As we move into this harvest season want to take a quick moment to send out a prayer to all our farmers and friends:

Lord,

As we start this harvest season, we pray that you watch over the farmer, the worker, and our families. We pray during this harvest season, that safety is in the forefront of every move they make.

With all the hard work put in before harvest, we pray that the equipment is ready to go and will hold up during the grueling season.

When things don’t go as planned, we hope that they are strong enough to take a step back and breathe without getting hot-headed.

We pray as Mother Nature makes her moves, that she spares the house, the farm, and the crops. We hope when it does rain, we take that opportunity to refresh and get everything in line before going back into the field.

When the long hours get tough, we hope their families can find the strength to remember why they love this life so much and realize how blessed they are, even during the toughest times.
