Amazing. For 16 years this progressive group has met. Only requirement is that you learn and share what you learn. Started with a small group of 6..now over 100 folks from over 40 countries. It will be interesting to see if any of the info is stuff I can apply to my operations.
Citrus Greening– Mike Stewart’s presentation sums up the gravity of this problem for citurs growers. In comparison Citrus Canker problems considered problematic…but citrus greening is fatal. .. We have a lot to learn.
Long latent period and the lack of visual cues early on all make it hard to detect– sometimes looks like other blight and citrus diseases. Lopsided leaves and lopsided fruit are typcial.
Albert Liptay-Director of R&D @ Stoller–discussed Stoller’s approach to the challenge: can we increase auxin levels so the bacteria won’t survive– or grow new tissue so that will choke the impact of the fatal bacteria.
Suggested program of Root Power Drip, Bio-Forge as a Foliar applications and then ReZist and Sett products. Hoping to get more details during a side bar conversation. Liptay understands the science…I just want a program that works.
Mythoughts on the discussion on using Bio-Forge on Dairy Feed crops.
Mold and spore count goes way down in silage or forage…when Bio-Forge is applied. Higher quality feed… more feed. More digestable. Dairy nutrition consultants are tracing increase milk production back to farmer’s use on their feed crops. Will be looking forward to supporting trial data…but should be viable option to dairy farmers challenged with low milk prices.
WOW..some interesting results with cherries, peaches, and beirries. Seems to be combo of Root Feed and Flower Power. Volume and tonnage is part of the story. But the uniformity and size is something my customers are looking for and will help my bottom line.
If the results reported look as good as the powerpoint slides of the trees and fruit…I can see why R Allen’s customers were pleased.
Dr. Heininger’s presentation on wheat tillers brought up a topic near and dear to me… Plant population. High plant populations makes plants compete for light and nutrients….and while looks strong early on.. actually drops off significantly in yield at end of cycle.. More isn’t always better…unless you can help the plants to adjust.
But if bioforge treatment can enhance the root growth– and make a yield difference with wheat…I wonder if it can translate into positive results for corn and soybean too.
Interesting that Root Power and Power Plus treated plants showed a big visual difference in 10 days over controls. Rain after the dribble application might be a helpful factor
Scab and disease suppression is attributed to bio-forge? That is very suprising. Hope Stoller will share research details with growers and distributors.
