Ag Week Interviews Sugar Beet Grower Sevrin Anderson from ND

Jenny Phillips, Director of Marketing • March 1, 2023

 

The first year we tried a few different rates and combinations of Calcine ®  and Aqua-Yield  ®  products within a 160 acre sugar beet field to now this year we will use Calcine  ®  and 5 different Aqua-Yield  ®  products on every acre of sugar beets we plant. We use the NanoCS  ® , which is in with Calcine ®  and our regular starter in sugar beets. Throughout the year, when we’re spraying Roundup  ® , we use the NanoPro ®  to help with the efficacy of that. Later in the year when we're doing some cercospra spraying, we add in the NanoK  ® to all three applications to help boost the late season sugar percentage in the sugar beets. 


We've tried 14 different combinations and we've never had any issues with volatility, crop injury or mixing, so that's been a key reason we've kept using it. The bottom line on it is that it's not adding any salt to the soil, which almost every fertilizer is salt based in some aspects. We've seen improvements in all our crops.
