Grasshopper for Improved Boll Development, Lint Quality & Yield
Foliar applied Grasshopper Potassium Nitrate improves drought tolerance, stress resistance and cotton’s overall nutritional status, which results in improved ball development, lint quality, yield, and consequently higher farmer’s income!
Roles of NO₃ and K in cotton
The small amount of nitrate nitrogen supports the leaf activity in order...
Soil samples were collected, mixed, and pulverized in a roller mill using ceramic stones. The soil was thoroughly mixed and sifted to remove small gravel and other unbroken concretions. Samples of 300 grams each were weighed, one for the control and one for the test sample.
Water (150 ml) was added to the control sample and mixed thoroughly. Excel was added to the second sample (5 gram dissolved in 125 ml...

Test was conducted in the Las Uvas Valley of New Mexico on land that is highly calcareous, with pH ranging from 7.6 near the surface to 9.3 at 36 to 40 inches, across the soil profile. Corn yields have historically been 15 to 20 Tons per acre, despite heavy nutritional inputs. Corn crops are generally chlorotic by July and remain so until harvest. Some field locations emerge chlorotic.
A trial was set up...
