Latest Trials from Sunbelt Ag Expo
Brit Hunter, Technical Agronomist • October 3, 2023
This year Aqua-Yield conducted trials with the Sunbelt Ag Expo, located in Moultrie, GA. Here is a summary of our findings on corn and peanuts:
- NanoN+ (4 oz) corn samples had consistently higher (up to 8,000 ppm) nitrogen when applied with UAN at V5 stage vs without.
- NanoN+ (4 oz) corn samples had consistently higher (up to 7,000 ppm) nitrogen when applied with UAN at V6 stage vs without.
- 2 applications of NanoN+ (4 oz) and UAN improved corn yield with a 6 bu/ac increase, a 3.4 ROI.
- NanoPro doubled the efficiency of peanut pesticides Silencer and Bravo.
- NanoPro improved Provost Silver fungicide uptake with peanuts.
- NanoPro, NanoCS, and NanoCalSi improved peanut yield by 6%: a $3.82/1 ROI.
Some of their success has been attributed to two sustainable product lines which continue to prove their worth in providing early and faster growth, more healthy plants and cost-effective returns on investment: Calcine® and nanotechnology-based products from
Aqua-Yield®.
Aqua-Yield® was excited to partner with Beck's again this year and trial some of our nanoliquid® products through their PFR (Practical Farm Research) program. Our 2-year multi-location trials show how our technology helps growers take their inputs to the next level. We strive to become PFR Proven next year!
NanoPro is the Aqua-Yield® flagship carrier adjuvant for crop protection applications. Add NanoPro to any Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) product to increase plant uptake and amplify the end result for crops. PGR products mimic natural plant hormones that either promote or slow plant growth. The chemical structure of PGR products is highly synergistic with Aqua-Yield nanotechnology.
