Profile
Jimmy Winslow of Tanglewood Farms
Location
Elizabeth City and Morehead City, North Carolina
Operation
Wheat, corn, soybean and potato crops
Challenge
How to maximize yield of wheat crop despite stress conditions of disease, fungus and extreme winds near the Atlantic coast.
Solution
Apply Bio-Forge® with the nitrogen. Apply Bio-Forge again when applying the fungicide at flag leaf emergence.
Result
Wheat treated with Stoller Products got off to a good start and came out of the cold, winter conditions quicker.
Eliminated problems with SCAB (Stinking Smut) and other diseases common in the region.
Grain remained golden and healthy despite several rains prior to the late harvest.
More robust grain heads that yielded better quality wheat with higher test weight and more bushels to the acre.
