Biostimulant Fertilizer for High Management Alfalfa

Biostimulants are natural compounds used to enhance plant growth or increase resistance to abiotic stress.

Effect on Yield & Feed Quality

In a cooperator study conducted in Wisconsin, Kriss® biostimulant fertilizer statistically increased total dry matter yield versus untreated check by over 1,000 lb/A.

What is KRISS® biostimulant fertilizer?

  • Registered as a 5-8-4 NPK fertilizer

  • Combination of seaweed extracts and plant-based amino acids

  • Active compounds include tryptophan, arginine and plant extracts

  • KRISS® biostimulant fertilizer can help drive yield and quality on highly managed alfalfa by supporting regrowth

I hope everyone had the chance to enjoy the Independence Day holiday with family and friends. Thanks to all of you who called in your orders early and helped minimize the added pressure that the short work week brings. I’d also like to thank all of you who returned your propane contracts by the due date. With a short window of when contracts are mailed to when they are due back, we really appreciate your patience and support. If reading this reminded you that your contract is still sitting on the kitchen table, just pick up the phone and call the energy office nearest to you. Our friendly staff will be glad to take care of you. On behalf of our energy team and everyone at your cooperative, thank you for choosing us to serve your propane needs again this year.

I’m going to start with something most of you don’t want to hear. In 4 months, you will be firing up your furnace for the first time. In 6 months, you’ll be shoveling snow. I’m not suggesting that you should go out and buy that new snow thrower that you’ve had your eye on. However, now is a great time to buy propane for the winter.

Did you know that Premier Cooperative is the largest Up North Plastics dealer in southwest Wisconsin?  Top producers know that the best way to preserve the quality of high-value forages is to store their feed in Up North silage bags.   Up North plastic has 2 to 3 times the puncture and tear resistance of foreign competitor’s products.  With the ever-increasing value of feed stuffs, why risk using anything but the strongest, most reliable, time-tested bag on the market?  Match that with Up North’s outstanding service record, and you have a combination that is unrivaled in the industry.  Trust the protection of your feed with Up North Plastics.
* Untreated check contained 3.2 fl oz/A Ascend® SL PGR + 1.2 fl oz/A Grizzly Too, Kriss® treatment was the same base with 16 fl oz/A Kriss® applied after the first and second cuttings.
