Grain carts are an effective way to reduce equipment wear and field compaction. Why waste expensive combine hours stopping to unload onto trucks at the end of the field? Or worse, exposing your operation to yield loss by compacting the ground with trucks in the field? Both these practices waste precious harvest time and put unnecessary wear on your equipment. Grain carts stay on the field, ...
During the 2023 growing season, Mr. Steven Deitz, a research consultant with Sawtooth Ag Research (Selma, CA) conducted a field study using a new ROS mineral oxychloride disinfectant, JC 9465, to control sour rot in mature (6 years old) wine grapes (cv. French Columbard) vineyard. The test site (vineyard) had a history of virus infections that showed symptomology late in the season when under ...
