ecmn | Don't do it.
Did a sales agronomist tell you to do this?
You are looking at Teva products. carbon solutions has a much higher quality product. Higher quality in that parent material that it sourced from is better, it's a more refined product. You will notice the label is specific as to what's in there and the user experience should be a good one because you will not have plugged nozzles or screens
Most of your co-ops and retails sales people are going to be getting products from the chemical companies that are going to put a whole lot of marketing and flash on a mediocre product just to get them into this biological category.
Fulvic acid is a byproduct of soil life or microbial activity.
It is a natural chelating agent, and has some effect on the CEC of the soil. So how would would adding that to your system create more yield? Your best way to see if it is working or not would be to pull some soil samples throughout the season in the root zone and pull some plant sap tests throughout the year to see if anything nutritionally in the soil or the plant has changed.
Long story short, throwing a fulvic acid in with your chemical program would have some antagonism, reducing efficacy, and if it's a low quality product you could actually have some plant stress. Keep your herbicide pass clean.
The other reason to don't do it is because you said you're going to yield check it. If that's how you plan on using fulvic, just mail me the $10 per acre that you were going to give the retailer and save yourself a bunch of headache.
A fulvic acid product should be used in furrow, as a foliar.. basically with a nutrition program and not part of a chemistry set with herbicides.
