Keeping blight out with help from Crusade
Having recommended Crusade for the past three seasons, Agrii agronomist John Mason is going a step further and plans to apply all potato blight sprays with the drift retardant this year.
We’ve been helping farmers with their agronomic challenges for 25 years.
Take a look at some of our case studies below to see how we’ve helped.
Having recommended Crusade for the past three seasons, Agrii agronomist John Mason is going a step further and plans to apply all potato blight sprays with the drift retardant this year.
According to East of Scotland Growers agronomist, James Rome, clubroot is one of the biggest crop health challenges facing vegetable growers in the region at the moment and has seen the benefits of using Bridgeway first-hand.
Covering the east coast of Scotland, Hutchinsons agronomist, Keith Brand has seen noticeable benefits to vegetable performance as a result of using biostimulant product, Bridgeway.
Max Howlett, Frontier agonomist, found no discernible difference in the canopy of sugar beet crops treated with Bridgeway, but at harvest, both yield and sugar content was greater.
Like much of the country, the biggest challenge in East Anglia at present is later-drilled winter crops that are in much need of a pick-me-up, says Frontier agronomist, Neil Leech.
Keith Challen, farms director at Belvoir Farming Company, Leics, is heading into another season of using biostimulants, and says amino acid products will be more important than ever this year.
The subject of biostimulants is one of those that divides opinion. Work conducted by Deborah Green of CMI Ltd, shows that Bridgeway application to sugar beet produced significant yield responses in both 2018 and 2019.
With spring crops going into poor ground conditions, agronomist Greg Taylor will be recommending adjuvant Backrow this spring to improve herbicide coverage, improve retention and protect crop safety.
With everything resting on spring crops, agronomist James Grantham believes adjuvants Backrow and Kantor will help growers get the best out of their crops this season.
With an incredibly compressed workload, big passes to catchup on and some complex tank mixes on the horizon, Yorkshire-based agronomist Billy Hosdell will be recommending adjuvant Kantor to aid tank-mix compatibility and improve efficacy.
Agronomist Stuart McDowall, based in North Lincs, will be looking to adjuvant Backrow this spring for it’s crop safety, environmental and weed control benefits.
With an exacerbated workload and saturated soils, agronomist John Mason will be looking to Backrow to optimise annual meadow-grass control by helping to retain pre-emergence herbicides in the top 5cm of the soil.
