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 we head into fall and harvest begins, September is a great time to review the basics of soil sampling. When it comes to soil sampling, the phrase “you cannot manage what you do not measure” is all too accurate.

As our summer grazing season dwindles down, now is a favorable time to get a head start on the 2025 season. Thistles and other biennial and perennial weeds are soon to begin to prepare for winter by sending nutrients and energy back down to the roots. The translocation to the roots of fall herbicide applications by products like DuraCor, will provide excellent long-term weed control. DuraCor offers control over a broader spectrum of weeds and at a lower use rate than its predecessor, GrazonNext HL. Contact your agronomist today to get started with DuraCor.

I hope you were able to relax and enjoy the Labor Day weekend. September has been fairly mild the last few years, so here’s to hoping Mother Nature cuts us some slack again this year. 
Since the summer officially ends September 22nd, now would be a great time to replace that nasty filter and give your furnace a test run to see if it ignites. If it doesn’t, contact your heating contractor to get your furnace checked out. (After you assure yourself that there is fuel in the tank.)
