Fifty farmers will be given 20ha worth of UPL’s ARY-AMIN biostimulant this spring.
According to Gemma Noakes, head of marketing, this will be the ideal opportunity for milling wheat growers to trail an alternative method to increasing grain protein.
“This season, whether a grower achieves their milling contract specifications could alter their crop’s profitability by over £500 /ha,” says Gemma. “It could be the difference between a superb performance in a challenging year or an average one.
“Farmers are increasingly questioning the sustainability and profitability of reaching 13% protein using additional nitrogen applications alone. This is where products like ARY-AMIN can help offer an alternative solution.”
ARY-AMIN is a mixture of amino acids, nitrogen and magnesium, specially formulated for use from stem elongation to grain fill. It can used in combination with all major T3 fungicides.
“By providing the plant with ready-built amino acids, it can better use its resources, improve energy usage, build protein more quickly, and overcome stress,” adds Gemma.
UPL will follow up the trials with grain protein analysis. The closing date for applications is May 27. For more information click this link.
