Working with our friends from Tyler Grow for year two now here at DeLarosa Farms in conjunction with XtremeAg. I'm in the corn plot.
00:00:07
Actually, there are five corn plots. Last year, we did five corn and five soy. This year, we're just doing corn. This field, I'm standing at July 2nd. You're saying, "What the hell, Damian?
00:00:16
July 2nd? Doesn't look like it's anywhere close to knee high by the 4th of July." No, it's not, and frankly, it should be about shoulder or head high by now.
00:00:23
But it's not. This corn crop went in on June 11th. We were very delayed in Northeast Indiana. We had a wet, cold spring. It did delay us.
00:00:32
We put Spectra in-furrow in several of these plots. If you don't know about the product Spectra, Spectra is a fungicide and a nematicide liquid concentrate.
00:00:44
The goal here was even emergence, rapid emergence, and pathogen protection early on at time of planting. It did well.
00:00:50
It looks like the stuff's really holding up well. This field just got side-dressed with nitrogen. It's going to get a foliar pass. In the foliar pass, it's going to get some Align in.
00:00:57
I'll keep you posted about that. But if you don't know about Spectra, Spectra, it aids in the control of agricultural
00:01:05
fungal disease and nematode pests while boosting plants' natural defense mechanisms and stimulating growth and vigor. I just read that.
00:01:13
You can check out more of their stuff. Go to Tyler Grow. Stay tuned. I'll be giving you videos about the plots that are happening here at DeLarosa
