Broadcasting fertilizer is a practice commonly used to maximize soil fertility, with advantages for managing the seeding operation early in the spring. However, this practice is detrimental to the efficiency of phosphorus, as it exposes it to either run-off in wet springs or, early tie-up or both. In this post we will examine the factors that can impair or improve phosphorus availability for uptake by plants.
When it comes to spraying foliar fertilizers to aid crop growth, or spraying pesticides to control weeds, diseases, and insects; sprayer operators and farmers pay close attention to various factors affecting product performance. These factors may include the calibration of the equipment, application timing, label instructions and to some extent, the water volume. However, oftentimes hardly any attention is paid to water quality – even though water comprises over 95% of the spray solution.
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 am proud of this field and am thankful for using OMEX Canola Primer on the seed and NutriBoost with the herbicide. This is the sixth crop for us on this previously neglected land.
The custom seeding equipment did not get here until May 19 – late in my eyes for canola. We seeded PIONEER 45H33 with applied OMEX Canola Primer on May 19, and were persistent in placing the seed only to the ½” depth. Seedlings emerged fairly quickly in the better areas of the field and were robust. A neighbor phoned a couple weeks ago, to tell me that neighbors are asking what we did here to get the crop emerging so fast under such dry conditions. One field across the road from ours was seeded on the same day, and is not even close in emergence or growth quality.
Rain History: 5/10 on May 16; 1/10 May 26; 1/10 May 31; 1/10 June 05; 3/10 in at south end to almost no rain at north end on June 11. Still very dry!
