"Developing plant and soil nutritional programs for potatoes and dry beans can prove to be challenging. Our philosophy is that proper and adequate nutrient testing of both soil and plant are an essential part of any fertility program. Phosyn has provided specific technical support that no other plant nutrition company has offered before."
- Kurtis J Ginter, K&R Crop Consultant, Winkler, Manitoba.
"When I have identified nutrient deficiencies with the use of the Megalab system, Phosyn products have always given our growers excellent returns."
- Nelson Moorehead, Agronomist, Redfern Farm Services, Manitoba.
(Wheat)
"We used Coptrel 500 on A.C. Barrie wheat. Definitely better quality and yield." - Harvey Nichol, Grower.
"On sandy soils, the inclusion of Coptrel 500 on Wheat more than pays for itself. Coptrel increases yields by an average of 3 bushels/acre and tests show a rise in protein levels." - Darcy Howarth, Agronomist, MacGregor Agri-Sales Ltd.
(3 bushels/acre is approximately 200 kg/ha)
(Potatoes)
"Soil tests came back requiring 7 to 10 lbs of zinc. We impregnated Zintrac 700 on our potato ground and never showed a deficiency using tissue tests throughout the year." - Greg Smith, 4-S Farms.
"We have been involved in potato trials for the last 3 years. After seeing the yield and quality responses I am very confident on recommending only Phosyn products to our customers."
- Bryan Dion, Agronomist, Jonair (1988) Ltd.
(Alfalfa)
"Bortrac 150 and F3000 worked fantastic in returning me more lbs/acre on my Alfalfa Hay ground." - Todd Brown, Grower.
(Lentils)
"Bortrac 150 and Zintrac 700 returned noticeable profits from my Lentil crop." - Bruce Cowling, Grower.
(Canola)
"Bortrac 150 gave our Canola crop an 8 bushels/acre increase. When deficiencies are present Phosyn products work great!"
- Todd Brown, Grower.
(8 bushels/acre is approximately 450 kg/ha)
