About this listen
"The easiest way to incorporate these products is in a pass you’re already making," says Goede. "So if you have in furrow applicators, you can tank mix it, or you can tank mix it with an herbicide on a second pass through the field."
For the 2025 season, NEXTA Biologicals is focusing on PGRs (plant growth regulators), synthetic hormones that are naturally occurring in plants. Some PGRs are stress hormones, and some are growth hormones.
A lot of growers are hesitant about biologicals, which is understandable with more than 1200 different companies selling some sort of biological product. Goede urges growers to do some side-by-side testing this season to see what works on their farm.
“When you say biological to a grower, it opens up a wave of emotion," Goede laughed. "Some people say snake out. Some people say moon juice, but there are products out there that are beneficial.”
