The Right Product at The Right Rate at The Right Time
The investments made today by farmers are staggering. With the cost of seed, equipment and fertilizer being what they are it is more important than ever to accurately place products that mean the most to the well-being of the seed. We are beginning to see that the war for sustainable profits will be fought "in the trenches". In the seed trench that it.
The most concerning issue is the safe treatment of grubs, wireworms, and now corn rootworms. The seed traits developed to kill corn rootworms in corn have been compromised by Mother Nature. Now we are faced with going back to using soil insecticides to control these pests. But few of us have the old time insecticide boxes and fewer still want to use them. I don't blame you, I wouldn't either!!
The use of soil insecticides can be done by injecting the product into the liquid fertilizer. That's the beauty of the Dosatron Injection System. A metered, accurate rate of product injected into your fertilizer just feet from being placed into the seed trench. Safe, contained, and minimal handling. No need to premix your insecticide in the whole batch of feritlizer. No need to worry about partial batches of premixed chemical and fertilizer setting overnight and settling out.
The Dosatron units are also great for soil fungicides and other additives that are used in relatively low use rates. Designed on a pump action that requires not electric motors, or electronic connections, these units are very resistant to weather, fertilizer, and abuse. You can buy with confidence, they do the job in a tough environment at a very reasonable price!
Here are a couple items for your to consider about how to help eliminate stress on your roots and encourage growth!
