I want to see side by side yield results over time before I try something. I've made big root balls, painted stripes of pretty green corn in test plots, and did tissue samples till I was sick of cutting stalks over the past 10 years. I have yet to find a single product that pays consistently over time. I've tried the high dollar and the cheap ones. Lots of guys show me pictures or say the product has helped them, but very few every do yield tests on their farms or really know how yield they have picked up. I've learned over time that salesman, "progressive farmers", and the industry in general pushes us to over complicate things sometimes. I remember using biologicals several years ago and being laughed at by fertilizer companies who now sell them. Even Monsanto has entered the biological market of all companies!!! Most of them are a waste of money out there and I am disappointed with them.
"torque" from nachurs is the product that I put pictures of, by the ear difference if a guy thinks it didn't out yield the check I don't know how much more proof there is.
"farm for profit" showed a 5.5 bushel response in side by side test's and by the looks of the soil last fall there might residual benefits.
bio forge showed no response.
by going to a pop up with zinc our yields have jumped up consistently 5-10 bushel every year plus points lower on the moisture in the fall.
