COPPER
Benefits of Use:
- Increases enzyme activity in the metabolism of plant
- Has a regulatory effect when soil nitrogen is high
- Has a role in the production of Vitamin A within the plant and funtions in chlorophyll formation
- May be used with sulfur to improve plant tolerance of environmetal stresses
Deficiency Symptoms—When to Apply:
- Young leaves become wilted, chlorotic, and twisted, followed by withering and dying
- Plants show a half-dwarfing effect with an inward rolling of leaves that develop a blue-green appearance

Huma Pro® Stimulates Rhizophagy Cycle of Microbes to Increase Root Growth
Objective The purpose of this research project was to evaluate how humic acids stimulate microbial activity and initiation of the rhizophagy cycle (in which plants cultivate microbes on their roots and then absorb them to extract their nutrients). Huma® Huma Pro®, a liquid 6% humic acid product, was used as the humic acid biostimulant source.
Super Phos® Multi-State Midwest Trial
Background Application of phosphorus (P) fertilizers—such as triple super phosphate (TSP), monoammonium phosphate (MAP), diammonium phosphate (DAP), liquid ammonium polyphosphate (APP), and other forms—can be inefficient and, at times, not environmentally friendly. A technology that can mitigate these P fertilizer challenges without compromising yield and return on investment is highly desirable. Huma® Super Phos® is
Huma® Breakout® Increases Cotton Production 15% for Johnson Farms
Objective A field trial was conducted to compare using the treatment product Furst™ alone versus using Huma® Breakout® + Furst™ on a Johnson Farms Inc. cotton crop in Glendale, Arizona. Materials & Methods A field of cotton was split into two sections. Section 1 (35.01 acres) was treated with 32 ounces (1 quart) of Furst™

This Week in Ag #35
Last week I was a guest on the TopSoil Webinar series hosted by Mitchell Hora of Continuum Ag (you can check it out here). I mentioned how western growers seem further along in their regenerative agriculture journey. That’s largely driven by regional attitudes and the food companies, who have pledged to sell products grown using regen ag practices. This has motivated growers of crops such as potatoes, onions, apples, and blueberries to hasten their adoption. But in the Heartland, where commodity crops fill the landscape, these growers have lacked many of the market-driven economic incentives. Until now.
This Week in Ag #57
“What are you planting this year?” That may not sound like a trick question, considering it’s already mid-March. But ask any farmer south of the Mason-Dixon line that question and you’ll likely see their shoulders shrug. You see, unlike in the West, where permanent crops and processor contracts make planting decisions more straight-forward, or in the
From the Field: Exploring the Impact of Biostimulants in Asia
Last June, I had the privilege of visiting parts of Asia to attend a conference hosted by one of our distributors. The event brought together ag experts, farmers, and researchers from different parts of the world to discuss the future of farming. I was excited to collaborate with them all and little did I know,
