To evaluate two in-furrow rates of the carbon-based product, Restore™, and its effect on seed germination, root growth and profitability.

Restore™ is a carbon-based product designed to replenish the carbon and oxygen levels required by plants.

An in-furrow application of Restore (a humic acid) is said to help promote nutrient uptake, resulting in a healthier root and plant system.

While there was a yield advantage to using Restore, it was not enough to have a positive return on investment. One reason could be the high organic matter present in our soils.

Refer to page 101 to see how Restore impacts soybeans planted in a soil with lower organic matter content.
