Prowl
Used to stay with same chemistry on 3 main crops in rotation: corn, potatoes and onions |
Normal |
Sandy Loam |
|
39 oz per acre |
First planting of onions came up and died - put RECLAIM on through water-replanted different variety of onions 3 days later - no damage to 2nd seeding |
Sinbar |
1 1/2 lb per acre |
Sandy Loam |
Onions 18 months after Sinbar was applied |
2 qt per acre late October |
Excellent response improved stand, reduced crusting, improved water retention. No yield data was provided but grower uses RECLAIM on ALL onion ground. |
Sinbar
Ground that had been rented out fro mint. When ground was returned, yields were below those achieved with no Sinbar |
1 1/2 lb per acre applied 24 months earlier |
Sandy Loam |
|
2 qt per acre very early spring |
7+ ton per acre increased yield - better quality - more profit. Because of other unspecified benefits, grower now applies RECLAIM on all onion ground |
Atrazine
applied to sweet corn |
1 lb per acre |
Sandy Loam |
|
39 oz per acre through pivot |
Onions planted began to show chemical damage - RECLAIM applied through water - in 5 days no detectable damage. 36 ton yield with exceptional quality. |
