4 YIELD ENHANCERS Yield enhancing Products DESCRIPTION Carbon Boost-S When Carbon Boost-S is added to existing soil fertilizer applications, plants are more rapidly and efficiently able to absorb and translocate vital nutrients than before. Carbon Boost-S utilizes technology to promote plant health, increase crop yields, increase nutrient efficiency, reduce soil chemistry tie-ups, and reduce crop stress. It is formulated to promote strong plant growth under stressful environmental conditions (i.e. cold, wet soils, drought stress, compaction, ph extremes, excess sand content, etc.). Mix this with your chemical as a foliar feed. It helps improve chlorophyll movement throughout the plant. It can be used on any crop. A normal rate for Carbon Boost-S is 8oz/A. DESCRIPTION Brandt Smart Trio BRANDT SMART TRIO is a proprietary crop nutrition technology designed to boost plant health, correct nutrient deficiencies, and bring new efficiencies to foliar applications. Ideal for today s leading row crops, BRANDT SMART TRIO allows micronutrients and herbicides, such as glyphosphate, to be mixed in the same tank and sprayed with one application. This is a great product to mix with your glyphosates when spraying crops. It provides micronutrients that help give plants manganese to prevent the crop from stunting from glyphosate. Our plots have shown a 2.8 bu to 6.2 bu advantage in soybeans. DESCRIPTION Quick Roots The microorganisms in QuickRoots have been shown to increase availability of certain soil plant nutrients. Can release plant available phosphorus from sources in the soil which has been shown to increase root mass, allowing the plant to explore a greater volume of soil. Increased plant nutrient availability will often lead to increased plant health and vigor which can translate into a yield response. DESCRIPTION Wetcit WETCIT is an adjuvant to improve tank mix efficiency via improved coverage of moisture and improved penetration of tank mix into plant and insect follicle and waxy surfaces. This adjuvant is used to enhance the performance of chemicals when post-spraying your crops. It contains citric acid which helps suppress insect pressure of soft bodied insects such as mites.

16 COVER CROP PROGRAMS SOILBUILDER COVER CROP SoilBuilder Spring Mix Wheat Rotation Burndown date: At planting SoilBuilder mix includes: Oats, Turnips, Radish,Cow Peas, Lentils, Forage Pea Planting Rate: 0 lb. per acre This mix is perfect for seeding following corn or soybeans and ahead of planting winter wheat. It has ideal ratio of grasses (45%), Brassica (40%) and legumes (5%) to keep the soil covered reducing erosion. It also stimulates microbial activity, conserves soil moisture, and prepares the seedbed for fall wheat seeding. This mix also works well in a corn rotation provided it can be seed in very early spring and corn planting is later. A separate spring mix for a soybean rotation features grasses and brassicas that get beneficial soil organisms off to a good start and prep the soil ahead of soybean planting. SoilBuilder Summer Mix Corn Rotation Generally planted post wheat harvest SoilBuilder mix includes: Summer Annual Forage, Purple Top Turnip, Oilseed Radish, Lentils, Cow Pea, Forage Pea or Forage Soybean Planting Rate: 6 lb. per acre This mix is beefed up with (25%) legumes to fix as much nitrogen as possible ahead of the following spring s corn planting. When combined with (0%) grasses and (65%) brassicas, this cover crop is outstanding at holding soil in place. The extra boost of nitrogen pounds per acre average - will help your corn crop perform. The soil will firm up quicker in spring, allowing corn planting to get underway sooner than on bare ground. When compared to eco-fallow, this cover crop saves fuel and chemical costs while reducing compaction. Forage Option Some growers seed up to.5 times the regular planting rate and allow livestock to graze the cover crop in the fall. The SoilBuilder Summer Mix provides excellent nutrition for livestock with solid protein and total digestible nutrient figures. Grazing does, however, reduce some of the soil benefits the cover crop provides. This is an option in all ARROW SEED summer annual forages. An alternative SoilBuilder mix is also available for soybean rotation. This mix includes: Summer Annual Forage, Oats, Turnips, and Oilseed Radish that invigorate the soil while reducing erosion. Why Plant A Cover Crop? 5 Consider all these economic benefits: Improves Soil Structure Provides A Grazing Resource Increased Soil Biological Activities Nitrogen Stabilization & Fixation Improved Soil-Water Relations Soil Stabilization

17 SoilBuilder Late Summer Mixes Corn Rotation Plant prior to last irrigation or on silage ground or seed corn production fields; or drill immediately after soybean harvest SoilBuilder Mix includes: Summer Annual Forage, Oats, Turnips, Oil Seed Radish, Austrian Winter Pea, Lentils, Forage Pea or Forage Soybean Planting Rate: 9lb. per acre COVER CROP PROGRAMS COVER CROP MIXES This late summer mix greens up quick with (65%) grasses to get well established ahead of a hard freeze which keeps beneficial organisms active into late fall. (25%) brassicas combat compaction while the mix as a whole encourages residue to break down more quickly. (0%) legumes provide a helpful shot of nitrogen. This mix is typically drilled on silage ground or air seeded over mature corn prior to the final irrigation or on soybean ground prior to leaf drop or immediately after soybean harvest. Winter Annual Mixes Option for Corn Rotation Burn down date: April of following year or at planting SoilBuilder Mix includes: Winter Wheat, Oats, Triticale (or Annual Rye or Winter Rye), Turnips. Oilseed Radish, Austrian Winter Pea, Lentils, Common or Hairy Vetch Planting Rate: 9lb. per acre This mix establishes itself quickly in the fall and greens up again in the spring with (65%) grasses to get beneficial soil organisms off to a quick start and keeps soil in place while (25%) brassicas break up compaction and (0%) legumes provide a bosst of nitrogen. This mix is typically drilled on silage ground or early harvested corn or air seeded over mature corn prior to the final irrigation or soybeans prior to leaf drop. Wheat Rotation (No-Till Fallow) Generally planted into corn stalks SoilBuilder Mix includes: Oats, Turnips, Oil Seed Radish, Austrian Winter Pea, Lentils, Winter or Common Vetch Planting Rate: 26lb. per acre This mix of (45%) grasses, (47%) brassicas, and (8%) legumes goes right to work breaking up compaction and breaking down corn residue all while reducing wind and water erosion. This mix is typically drilled into corn stalks. Soybean Rotation Plant prior to leaf drop SoilBuilder Mix includes: Summer Annual Forage, Oats, Winter Wheat, Turnips, Oilseed Radish Planting Rate: 6lb. per acre With this mix you ll get a high quality product of (75%) grasses and (25%) brassicas that quickly establish themselves and build a deep, strong root base that helps break up compaction and significantly reduce erosion, and the soil will better absorb and hold moisture. This mix is typically drilled on early harvested corn ground or seeded prior to final irrigation. ARROW SEED developed its SoilBuilder cover crop mixes to provide the most benefits to the soil and to the next crop in your rotation thanks to their ability to improve the soil s structure while providing a boost in nutrients like nitrogen. The mixes are big on performance and believe clean, quality seeds in mixes matched to the growing season establish themselves more quickly and perform better. 6

22 TECHNOLOGY TO IMPROVE YIELD The FUTURE OF IRRIGATION By: Lance Atwater Precision Ag Technology Specialist For Precision Ag Help Contact: Kevin Royal: Irrigation has been around for centuries and has changed dramatically over the years. Many farmers probably remember growing up using irrigation ditches that utilized siphon tubes. Then pipe became the normal way to irrigate until the invention of the pivot. While irrigation practices might have changed over the years, the resource used to irrigate crops has not. As many already know, water is a natural resource that comes in a limited supply and should not be taken for granted. Although we need to conserve water for future generations, we also have to look at ways to maximize water applications so that irrigation costs are reduced and yields increased. This is where CPI s Water Management Solutions program comes into play. Through the use of variable rate irrigation technology and soil moisture probes, farmers now have better control of their water applications. Variable rate irrigation and soil moisture probes let farmers apply the correct amount of water on the right soil type at the right time. This can prevent over watering and under watering of crops, which leads to reduced yields. CPI s soil moisture probes also identify leaching of nutrients through the soil profile by measuring salinity. Using variable rate irrigation and soil moisture probes will reduce irrigation costs and increase yields whileconserving water at the same time. Variable rate irrigation and soil moisture monitoring are the future of irrigation. Yet, why wait for the future? The time to implement this technology is now! Be sure to visit with your local CPI sales representative about CPI s Water Management Solutions program and how CPI can help you maximize your water applications! 2
