“This growing season was a stressful one. But when corn fields treated with Bio-Forge® show a 13 bu/acre advantage, I know it works.”
- Rick Hurley, Curlew, IA
A cold, wet spring followed by a dry summer is the “perfect storm” when it comes to crop stress. That’s why progressive farmers like Rick Hurley are looking beyond the usual solutions to protect their yields. Adding Stoller’s Bio-Forge® to their crop management program is easy, affordable and effective.
Maximizing the genetic expression of plants, Bio-Forge is designed to manage the stress of extreme temperatures, high plant populations, excess moisture—even herbicide damage. Keeping plant hormones at the optimal balance, Bio-Forge manages excessive ethylene so plants can function properly. It is easy to use and can be applied any time in the growing season—as a seed, in-furrow or foliar treatment.
Backed by over 50 university studies, Bio-Forge® showed an average yield increase of 17.65 bu/acre on corn, 10 bu/acre increase on wheat and 5 bu/acre increase on soybeans. To see what farmers are saying or to view the research data yourself, visit StollerUSA.com.
