Introduction  A field trial to test efficacy of Huma® Promax® as a cropprotection product for strawberries (Fragaria sp.) was applied in a location known to have spring disease problems with either Fusarium or Macrophomina pathogenic fungi.   This report is based on a field trial with strawberries conducted by Holden Agricultural Research and Consulting submitted on

Objective Over the years, some weeds have developed resistance to common herbicides such as glyphosate. To overcome this hurdle, some growers may bump up the rates or add other herbicides or products with different mechanisms/modes of action into the tank mix. Such approaches have had mixed results over the long run and have increased the

Objective  Huma® Zap® has been shown to improve crop yield and soil conditions. This research investigated some of the ways Zap improves soil characteristics such as soil biology and soil structure.  Materials & Methods  Two sets of soil in containers received two different solutions. The first received 120 ml of only water and the second

Introduction  Nitrogen loss through volatilization begins to occur immediately after application unless the urea is stabilized. Agrotain® has been the industry standard for urea stabilization. In 2011, at Shoffner Farm Research, a trial was established to compare Agrotain® and the Huma® product X-Tend® to increase nitrogen use efficiency and rice yield (using the CL 151

Objective  This two-year trial aimed to assess the suppression effects of Promax® and 2 types of beneficial nematode treatments (S. feltiae and S. riobrave) versus a control on plant-parasitic nematodes (Stunt, Lance, Ring, and Spiral) for English Boxwood (Buxus sempervirens L. var. suffruticosa) ornamental plants.  Materials & Methods  Each experimental unit consisted of 2 English

Objective  Huma® Zap® has been shown to improve crop yield and soil conditions. This report illustrates some of the ways Zap® improves soil characteristics such as water-holding capacity and structure.  Materials & Methods  In this study, two sets of soil in pots were saturated with either water or 3% Zap® solution. None of the pots
