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 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!
