Bombardier and Mycogel
Soy variety Challenge
Chapadoes, Brazil
All other soybean vigor parameters have increased due to MYCOGEL and BOMBARDIER application: the main root length in full bloom (R2) increased by 8.8 %; the aerial part height in full bloom (R2) increased by 6.6 %; The dry weight of the aerial part of a plant in full bloom (R2) increased by 3.7 %; the final height of the mature plant increased by 6.9 %; the first pod insertion height in the mature plant increased by 12.7 % (enables to harvest with less losses by cutting too high); the average internodes distance in the mature plant increased by 8.8 %; the pods amount per plant increased by 0.2 %; the pod’s weight per plant increased by 5.4 % and the number of grains per pod increased by 11.9 %.
