Reach your goal and crop potential with the right adjuvant.

This year, every farmer is facing tough input decisions. Adjuvants improve plant coverage and reduces drift, optimizing your herbicide, fungicide, insecticide and desiccant applications. So while you might pay a little more today, you’ll be looking at fewer weed escapes tomorrow. Here are a few adjuvant recommendations for the Enlist acre.

Class Act® NG® is an NIS and AMS water conditioner designed as an easy-to-use formulation that minimizes foaming. Class Act® NG® improves efficacy by three main functions:

  1. Reducing tie-up in the tank (Ammonium sulfate, AMS)
    • 2.5 gal/100 gal contains 8.5 lbs AMS
  2. Increases surface area (non-ionic surfactant, NIS)
    • 2.5 gal/100 gal contains 2-quart equivalent of NIS
  3. Increasing herbicide uptake (CornSorb®)
    • High Fructose CornSyrup (HFCS)
      • Increases humectancy/droplet sticking
    • Alkyl Polyglucosides (APG)
      • Increases uptake of cations
Fluorescent die shows differences of penetration of nutrient or active ingredient into plant cells for faster plant uptake with Class Act® NG®

CornSorb® technology that combines both high fructose corn syrup plus alkyl polyglucosides for increased nutrient or herbicide uptake.

Trials using full CornSorb® technology demonstrated 87.7% increase over untreated trials.

Interlock® drift and deposition aid helps reduce driftable fines and increases deposition of pesticide active ingredient onto pests.

Interlock® helps to maintain a more consistent droplet size spectrum and reduces the formation of smaller droplet sizes that are more susceptible to off-target movement as shown by the darker cloud of fine spray particles.

As all farmers know, it takes a great deal of work (and some luck) to get a crop planted, grown, and brought back to the silage storage unit to be fed to our precious livestock. There are a variety of ways that we can add value to that plant before it gets harvested – but what about as we harvest and proceed to feed it out? .

Remember last month when I was talking smack about winter being over? I wasn’t ready to accept it and when I heard a blizzard was raging in the upper peninsula of Michigan the first week of March, I decided to go there for a snowmobiling trip with a buddy. Don’t run out of gasoline in the U.P. in below zero weather at night. That’s a really bad thing to do. And don’t ask how I know.

Alfalfa is increasingly popular among dairy producers for its ration and rotational benefits. It boosts animal performance, enhances soil health, and supports sustainability goals.
