Row crop
Row Crop
Row crops describe any crop that can be planted in rows wide enough to allow for agricultural machinery cultivation and/or harvesting. Such crops include but are not limited to, corn, wheat, rice, soybeans, hay, and cotton. Planting and harvesting in rows allows for more efficient use of land, resources and labor. Around the world, this increase in efficiency and utilization of resources allows for a secure and affordable food supply.
Small Grains
Small grains generally refer to crops such as wheat, barley, oats, alfalfa, and rye. Oats and rye tolerate acidic or poorly drained soils better than wheat or barley do. Nevertheless, maximum yields are achieved on moderately well-drained or well-drained soils with a pH above 5.8. For maximum wheat production, wheat must be cropped on moderately well-drained or well-drained soils with a pH above 6.0. Barley requires well-drained soils with a pH above 6.3, the same as needed for alfalfa production.
Residual Pesticide Applications
Environmental pests come in a wide variety of forms including, diseases, insects, invasive weeds and more. The methods for controlling these pests vary as well. Some solutions require a pesticide to remain active and in contact with the leaf surface for an extended period for best results. Nu-Film-17® is uniquely formulated to be combined with pesticides that require residual activity on the leaf or fruit surface. These include contact or ingestion-based pesticides that have direct activity on the target pests.
Nu-Film® 17
Nu-Film® 17 is a superior deposition, sticker, and extender adjuvant with non-ionic properties based on proprietary Miller technology containing Pinolene.
Systemic Pesticide Applications
Plant health can be negatively impacted by pests in the environment in several different ways. Each of these potential pests also require their own unique solution for control. Exit ® has been purposefully formulated to be combined with pesticides that depend upon rapid uptake and translocation of the active ingredient. Pesticides such as those with systemic or translaminar activity as well as those with hormonal or plant growth regulator effects are particularly well suited for tank mixing with Exit®. The unique ability to increase the speed at which translocation occurs is what defines Exit®.
Exit®
Exit® is an activator-adjuvant comprising a blend of premium-quality esterified seed oil with a proprietary surfactant and humectant system.
Soybeans
Soybean (Glycine max), also called soja bean or soya bean, is an annual legume of the pea family (Fabaceae), cultivated for its edible seed. The soybean is economically the most important bean in the world, providing vegetable protein for millions of people and ingredients for hundreds of chemical products.
Pod Shatter
Adequate moisture during the growing season is critical to ensuring a healthy crop. However, moisture can also cause yield loss through pod shatter. The intrusion of moisture from rain or dew can cause expansion and contraction of pods, weakening the overall structure. Pod Ceal® binds to a pod’s natural waxes and minimizes this expansion and contraction, helping to minimize pod shatter losses.
Pod Ceal®
Pod Ceal® is a unique formulation containing cyclohexane polymer concentrate.
Manganese Deficiency
Manganese deficiencies, characterized by interveinal chlorosis, as well as curling of the leaf margins, can impact soybean yields and quality. The addition of supplemental manganese can help to remedy deficiency effects. Our Science™ Bean Mix dry fertilizer contains 10% manganese as well as a mix of 5 other EDTA chelated micronutrients to provide key nutrition, preventing late season “hidden hunger.”
Science Bean Mix
In the presence of non-chelated micronutrients, Glyphosate activity is reduced because it reacts with certain nutrients.
Micronutrient Deficiencies
During the season, the translocation and availability of key nutrients can dramatically impact the quality of harvest at the end of the growing cycle. Microplex® provides a well-rounded mix of micronutrients to address numerous plant functions occurring during critical growth stages. By delivering more than just one micronutrient, balanced interactions between nutrients within the plant are maintained and the prevention of micronutrient deficiencies can be potentially achieved.
Microplex®
Microplex® is an EDTA chelated blend of eight micronutrients designed for maximum plant response in foliar or soil applications.
Fruit Set
Fruit set is categorized as the critical transition period shortly after fertilization as plant processes switch over to fruit formation and growth. A successful fruit set is integral to a healthy crop at harvest. This process can be improved with the addition of Cytokin® at key timings. Cytokin® contains plant growth hormones responsible for cell division, cell enlargement, and various other plant growth functions. The nature-based plant growth regulator effects help to maximize conditions necessary for fruit set and early fruit development.
Cytokin®
Cytokin® is a plant- based EPA registered plant growth regulator designed to increase crop production efficiency.
Sugarbeets
Sugar beets (Beta vulgaris) are a form of beet in the amaranth family (Amaranthaceae) and are cultivated as a source of sugar. Sugar beet juice contains high levels of sucrose and is second only to sugarcane as the major source of the world’s sugar. Approximately twenty percent of the global sugar market stems from sugar beets.

Environmental pests come in a wide range of forms, from diseases, to insects, to invasive weeds. The methods for controlling these pests vary as well. Some solutions require a pesticide to remain active and in contact with the leaf surface for an extended period of time for best results. Nu-Film-P® is an organic compliant adjuvant that is uniquely formulated to be combined with pesticides requiring residual activity on the leaf or fruit surface. These include contact or ingestion-based pesticides that have direct activity on the target pests.

Pre-Emergent Herbicide Applications
Pre-emergent applications of herbicides are widely utilized in an effort to cut down on potential weed populations. These weeds can rob a crop of yield potential. Once a pre-emergent herbicide is applied to the soil, the environment naturally begins to break that chemistry down in a plethora of ways. Sustain® is recommended as a tank mix to help reduce some of these environmental effects. Environmental effects such as UV degradation and leaching of the herbicide can be reduced, thereby helping to potentially increase the effectiveness of pre-emergent herbicides applied.
Sustain®
Sustain® is a new, unique class of adjuvant with non-ionic properties based on Miller’s proprietary Pinolene® technology.
Sugarcane
Sugarcane (Saccharum officinarum), a perennial grass of the family Poaceae, is primarily cultivated for its juice from which sugar is processed. Most of the world’s sugarcane is grown in subtropical and tropical areas. The plant is also grown for biofuel production, especially in Brazil, as the canes can be used directly to produce ethyl alcohol (ethanol). It first grew in Asia, but after the year 700 A.D. people started planting it in Africa and southern Europe. Today the biggest producer is Brazil in South America.
High Sodium Soils
High sodium soils can put a significant amount of overall stress on a plant during growth and development which can negatively impact yield. In soils where sodium and calcium are present, applications of C.A.L.F.A.® solubilize these nutrients into soluble forms of sodium carboxylate and calcium carboxylate. The root system has a strong preference for calcium carboxylate and will absorb it while pushing the soluble sodium carboxylate away. These salts are then leached out of the root zone, which can reduce overall plant stress.
C.A.L.F.A.®
C.A.L.F.A.® is a proprietary blend of 40% nature-based carboxylic acid solution designed to release soil nutrients into plant available forms during critical plant growth and development stages.

Post-Emergent Weed Control
Problem: Post-Emergent Weed Control, Solution: Exit® Adjuvant and Nu-Film-17® Adjuvant Once of the greatest challenges to maintaining a productive and valuable crop is the management of weed populations. In order to control the plethora of weed species, multiple herbicide chemistries may be utilized. Some may be systemic while others may be more effective through direct contact or burndown. Depending upon the chemistries utilized, Exit® or Nu-Film-17® can serve as excellent tank mix partners. If the herbicide functions more as systemic, and speed of control is the goal, Exit® is the ideal choice. If a contact herbicide is utilized and a more metered absorption is preferred, Nu-Film-17® is recommended.

Sunflower
Sunflowers (genus Helianthus), belong to a genus of nearly 70 species of herbaceous plants of the aster family (Asteraceae). Sunflowers are native primarily to North and South America. Some species are cultivated as ornamentals for their spectacular size and flower heads as well as for their edible seeds. Sunflowers need full sun and rich, well-drained soil to reach their maximum height.
