Tips from the Tailgate: Little Potatoes-Big Business

We all know a good start doesn’t guarantee a good finish; but without a good start you rarely get a banner performance.  That’s why I’m excited to share these. Roy Zellmer and I visited a Little Potato operation last week (5 separate field trials), there is no doubt the addition of 1.5 gallons of CXPro into 22+/- gallons of their standard 10-34-0 mix at row has made a difference in tuber development on these Little Potatoes.


The “little potato” industry is relatively new in WI with much to learn about what is required for size consistency and flesh quality. However, potato growers using multi-specie biology in CX-1 over the past few years have said “I always get paid top dollar for the loads I send in”.

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.
