Work with an OMEX Plant Health Professional to develop a nutrient management program tailored to your specific needs.
For the past few years, we have talked about the concept of “antibiotics + vitamins," referring to what the combination of fungicides and adequate nutrition can achieve for your crops. The right combination is critical for promoting health and fending off diseases and pests, and it all starts with a fungal screening of the seed.
Plant growth regulators (PGRs) and plant growth stimulators (PGSs) are naturally-occurring or synthetic compounds that, when applied to plants, modify their physiological processes, and growth and development habits. In plant cells, they stimulate specific enzymes or pathways and help regulate metabolism.
The term “PGR” is widely used in Western Canada to refer to products that are sprayed on wheat to shorten the height of the crop, while PGSs are designed to be incorporated into a well-balanced nutrition program to achieve a better uptake of nutrients, enhanced growth and development, better seed, fruit or tuber set, improved crop standability and more. Producers looking to preserve yield and profitability are encouraged to take a closer look at PGSs.
The most critical stage in establishing a plant’s yield potential is in The First 30 Days®. Start your season off strong.
The FINAL 30 Days® consists of nutritional management programs to enhance fill and quality of grain and oilseed crops.

I had about 3 acres worth of C3 left over from a pea field, so we sprayed it onto the barley until the tank was empty. This is a new field I rented that is sandy loam with a history of poor fertility.
I first used C3 in 2012 when I had a silage corn field turning orange due to excess moisture. My Richardson Pioneer rep said to use C3 when I sprayed the glyphosate on it. Turned out the best corn I ever grew. I have been using it every year on our land since; it works.
I could never grow corn like this without C3. I do have an agronomy background so I know how important nutrition is ... especially at the 4 to 6 leaf stage.
