Field Trial: X-Tend® Increases Glyphosate Effectiveness

May 12, 2022 By

Objective

Over the years, some weeds have developed resistance to common herbicides such as glyphosate. To overcome this hurdle, growers may bump up the rates or add other herbicides or products with different mechanisms/modes of action into the tank mix. Such approaches have had mixed results over the long run and have increased the cost of weed control.

In this study, Huma Gro® X-Tend® was added to a glyphosate product to test the potential for improving the herbicidal efficacy of the product in a cost-effective way. [Read more…]

Huma Gro®: Practically Perfect in Every Way for Strawberries

June 19, 2019 By

Successful strawberry farming presents many unique challenges. As with every other type of crop, each farm will have its own challenges related to soil, soil tilth, soil pathogens, soil nutrient cycling, nutrient availability, plant vigor, irrigation needs, etc. Combined with those challenges are strawberry farming cultural practices related to continuous cropping and soil fumigation—with the resulting lack of crop diversity and soil microbial diversity that increases soil-borne diseases and tends to reduce yields over time. Strawberry farming continues to get more expensive while yields (and profits) are diminishing. What to do?

Huma Gro® Phos-Max® en maíz es 15 veces más efectivo que el fósforo convencional (10-34-0)

June 21, 2018 By

Este ensayo de campo evaluó la eficacia del fósforo (P) de Huma Gro® Phos-Max® en el rendimiento del maíz comparado con el estándar 10-34-0.

La aplicación de Phos-Max® de Huma Gro® en 1,225 GPA aumentó el rendimiento unos 99,15 fanegas/acre en comparación con 10-34-0 en 18,38 GPA. Esto demuestra que Phos-Max® es 15 veces más efectivo que 10-34-0 a la hora de proporcionar fósforo al maíz, lo que al precio de venta minorista sugerido por el fabricante al momento del ensayo representaba un 40 % de ahorro en gastos de fertilizante.

Lograr un mayor rendimiento utilizando mucho menos producto (7,62 lb de P2O5 para Phos-Max® vs. 72,6 lb de P2O5 a partir del 10-34-0) ofrece además la ventaja de que presenta muchas menos oportunidades de lixiviación del fósforo en el suelo y escurrimiento en aguas cercanas, por lo que protege el medio ambiente. Además, facilita la agricultura sustentable a través del cumplimiento con las 4 A de administración de nutrientes, ya que se aplica la fuente adecuada de nutrientes de planta, al volumen adecuado, en el momento y en el lugar adecuados.
