Bombardier and Mycogel in soy variety Desafío

Over 250 trials on 120 different crops from over 90 countries.

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 %.
