Objective  In this study, the Huma® growth manager product Breakout® was evaluated in terms of its effects on yield and quality of processing tomatoes.  Materials & Methods  In cooperation with the University of California, processing tomato seedlings were transplanted on a farm in Central Valley of California near Patterson on April 4 and then harvested

Background Application of Zap® to soils in combination with other Huma® fertilizers at various locations previously resulted in crops with improved plant growth and higher yields. Applying Zap® with grower standard products or as a single product application to soil and plants could also impact results. Objective The focus of this study was to observe

Objective  Determine the effect on barley yield of adding Huma® X-Tend® B to split applications of different rates of nitrogen fertilizer.  Background  Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer (EEF) additives improve crop production. Humates have been shown to improve crop yield. The Huma® EEF additive X-Tend® B is a concentrated Micro Carbon Technology® product with high levels of

Objective The objective of this study was to compare, for use in Louisiana wheat production, the efficacy of a liquid silicon (Si) fertilizer (Huma® Sili-Max®) with a commonly used dry Si source (steel slag) and another Si source (wollastonite) often used in research as a suspension. Silica deposition is an important barrier for foliar fungal

Objective  The purpose of this research project was to evaluate how a special blend of fertilizer solution and a root dip made of Huma® products with Micro Carbon Technology® affect strawberry yield when compared with a control program of grower’s standard fertilizer and a competitor root dip product.  Materials & Methods  Strawberry cultivar San Andreas

Background X-Tend® mixed with other fertilizers applied to specific crops has enhanced results with improved plant growth and higher yields. Combining X-Tend® with grower standard products applied to soil and when applied as a single product foliar application could also impact results. Objective The focus of this study was to observe if X-Tend® as a
