    Objective

    Evaluate the effects of BioPath® applicationson nutrient uptake and the grain yield of corn.

    Overview

    • Some applied fertilizer and other soil nutrients are unavailable to the plant during nutrient uptake due to complex physical and chemical interactions.
    • Select soil microbes can influence these interactions to increase plant nutrient availability and improve nutrient uptake and utilization, resulting in increased plant biomass, improved vigor and higher quality of yield.
    • BioPath contains multiple bacterial species that are specifically selected and formulated to promote plant nutrient availability via production of organic acids and enzymes that improve the solubilization of fertilizer into plant available forms.

    Trial Details

    Application Timing: Applications at planting in-furrow or side dress at V4-V6

    Results

    BioPath in Corn
    Comparisons between BioPath and untreated checks resulted in a +4.1 bu/ac yield increase from BioPath in 78% of comparisons.
    – Within the 78% responsive trials, BioPath delivered an average yield increase of +6.0 bu/ac

     

     

    Summary

    • BioPath has flexible application methods that produce consistent, positive results. In overall corn testing (combining sidedress and in-furrow results) BioPath provided an 78% positive yield response with a 4.1 bu/ac yield advantage
