Dreaming of a white harvest: preparing for boll set with NanoK®

Dr. Tracey Carrillo, Regional Manager, Texas • Jul 14, 2021

The majority of demand for potassium in cotton is at about first bloom. Soils often have an abundance of potassium but often it is tied up and not available to the plant. Potassium plays a major role in yield, defense of pathogens, improved fiber quality, micronaire, length and strength. Once boll set begins demand for potassium increases. 


NanoK® is Aqua-Yield® nanoliquid technology that is 100% available to the plant and can be applied with most other liquid fertility, crop protectants, herbicides or growth regulators (always jar test for compatibility). Rate is 4 oz per acre and is a great way to boost your potassium in cotton during high demand plant development stages.

Nutrient uptake rates reached maxium during midbloom and declined rapidly as the boll matures (Mullins and Burmester. 1990).

Some of their success has been attributed to two sustainable product lines which continue to prove their worth in providing early and faster growth, more healthy plants and cost-effective returns on investment: Calcine® and nanotechnology-based products from Aqua-Yield®.

Aqua-Yield® was excited to partner with Beck's again this year and trial some of our nanoliquid® products through their PFR (Practical Farm Research) program. Our 2-year multi-location trials show how our technology helps growers take their inputs to the next level. We strive to become PFR Proven next year!

NanoPro is the Aqua-Yield® flagship carrier adjuvant for crop protection applications. Add NanoPro to any Plant Growth Regulator (PGR) product to increase plant uptake and amplify the end result for crops. PGR products mimic natural plant hormones that either promote or slow plant growth. The chemical structure of PGR products is highly synergistic with Aqua-Yield nanotechnology.
