The purpose of this study is to evaluate calcium and sugar placement with Precision Planting’s FurrowJet attachments to determine impact on yield and profitability.

2017 Multi-Location Soybean In-Furrow Placement Study - FurrowJet™

Fertilizer placement is critical for getting the most out of the products that you are applying. The products tested in this study all performed different tasks, but the goal is the same; to maximize the health of the soybean in its earliest growth stages. Sugar is great for providing soil microbes with energy, which in turn helps the symbyosis between a young soybean plant and the soil. Applying calcium close to the root zone helps with root and shoot growth. This year, data from five locations showed negligible yield from adding these products.
