The purpose of this study is to compare various sugar products, applied foliar at the R1 growth stage, and their impact on plant health, yield and profitability.

2017 Kentucky Soybean Sugar Study - Foliar

Sugar plays many important roles within all plants and has been tested extensively by many researchers with mixed results. Some of these studies have documented suppressed disease pressure compared to untreated plants when the application was made just prior to an attack of a plant pathogen. Minor yield advantages were observed in this plot, which was relatively stress free all season. The addition of sugar, especially in the case of the Feed Grade Dextrose, was very inexpensive and resulted in a positive return on investment.
