@Dusty3080467325 @corey_fransen @ISUCropNews I made an assumption you understood that the EPA is in charge of pesticide registration and labeling and doesn’t have direct oversight of fertilizer products like nitrogen.

[Max Frederes @MaxCropProtect]

@Dusty3080467325 @corey_fransen @ISUCropNews The EPA does. That’s why it has a registration for plant health. Can’t get something on a label without data.

@corey_fransen @Dusty3080467325 @ISUCropNews Yes ethylene suppression. The difference is growers don’t cut the optimal rate of nitrogen by a 1/3 for the “yield bump”

[Max Frederes @MaxCropProtect]

@Dusty3080467325 @ISUCropNews A sublethal rate expediting resistance would be my concern. Especially with the strobi class that’s been used 20 years on corn/soy. May as well use a 2/3 rate of lambda with tha bifen just because it’s cheap. Same MOA

[Max Frederes @MaxCropProtect]

@TandTAg Intentional confusion. Branding actives before they come off patent means generics have to use the actual active ingredient that most people don’t recognize.

BASF - revysol - mefentrifluconazole
Syngenta - adepidyn - Pydiflumetofen
Corteva - optinyte - Nitrapyrin

@McClintock_Shan Thanks for sharing. Growth stage currently?

@SyngentaUS What price of corn does it take to recover the investment of Trivapro + aerial application with a 6.6 bu/ac yield increase?

@ccamike How’d I know this was gonna get asked 😂

Wheat is pushing along nicely…time to get it to the finish line! Protecting the flag leaf and head is critical to high yields. Nexicor + Fastac CS at flag leaf followed by Sphaerex at heading is a strong game plan.

Great info for those in SWMO struggling killing ryegrass in front of corn with atrazine in the mixture

Burndown applications have begun in KY. Here is an article with a few tips and reminders as the sprayers head to the field to start the field season:

@TandTAg One watch out would be the 30 day planting restriction after application

[Max Frederes @MaxCropProtect]

@GOBBLERODGER Yes agreed on the milestone portion and thistles. Sharpen has been great on ragweeds, burns, iron weeds, etc. it’s not killing the red or white clover which is a bonus for a lot of Missouri pastures
