Effect on the Quality of Turf

Turf trial conducted at Rutgers University (North Brunswick New Jersey)

4 Treatments
1. Control
2. PRULA Premium Care 1 (PRULA PC1): 32 fl. oz./acre was applied a total of 6 times. (Total of 1.5 gallon/acre)
3. PRULA Premium Care 2 (PRULA PC2): 64 fl. oz./acre was applied a total of 6 times. (Total of 3.0 gallon/acre)
4. PRULA Premium Care 3 (PRULA PC3): 128 fl. oz./acre was applied a total of 6 times. (Total of 6.0 gallon/acre)
Application Dates: June 8, June 22, July 6, July 20, August 3, and August 17 (2023)

The graph illustrates turf quality (TQ) over time under well-irrigated conditions (100% ET) for Control, PRULA PC1, PRULA PC2, and PRULA PC3 from June 8 (Day 0) to August 28 (Day 84). Initially, all treatments exhibited similar TQ ratings, remaining above 7 until around Day 28. A gradual decline followed, with the most significant drop occurring between July 20 (Day 42) and August 3 (Day 56), due to peak summer heat stress. The Control group showed the most substantial decline, while PRULA-treated plots maintained slightly higher TQ ratings. By August 17 (Day 70), PRULA treatments demonstrated some recovery, with PRULA PC2 showing the best performance. These results suggest that PRULA applications may help sustain turf quality under well-irrigated but stressful conditions.

The graph illustrates turf quality (TQ) over time under deficit irrigation (60% ET) for Control, PRULA PC1, PRULA PC2, and PRULA PC3, measured from June 8 (Day 0) to August 28 (Day 84). Initially, all treatments exhibited similar TQ ratings, peaking around Day 14 before a steady decline began. The most significant drop occurred between July 20 (Day 42) and August 3 (Day 56), due to peak summer heat stress, with the Control group showing the steepest decline.

PRULA-treated plots maintained higher TQ ratings than the Control throughout the study, with PRULA PC3 demonstrating the best recovery trend. By August 28 (Day 84), PRULA PC3 had the highest TQ, followed by PRULA PC2 and PRULA PC1, suggesting that PRULA treatments, particularly PC3, help mitigate turf quality loss under water-limited conditions.

Effect on the Yield of Wheat

Wheat Field Trial, Pergamino, Argentina

The trial demonstrated that PRULA Premium Care significantly enhances wheat yield when applied at key growth stages. A total of 2L/ha was applied in two split applications: 1L/ha at BBCH23-29 (tillering stage) and another 1L/ha at BBCH39 (stem elongation stage) via foliar application.

The results showed a 16.9% increase in yield compared to the control, with wheat production rising from 3,762 kg/ha (control) to 4,396 kg/ha with PRULA Premium Care.

Effect on the Yield of Soybean

Soybean Field Trial, Buenos Aires, Argentina

The trial results indicate that PRULA Premium Care significantly enhances soybean yield, with greater benefits observed at higher application rates. A total of 2L/ha was applied in two different treatments: 1L/ha at the fourth trifoliate stage and full bloom (Treatment 1), and 2L/ha at V4 and R2 stages (Treatment 2), both via foliar application.

The results showed that the 2L/ha treatment increased yield by 8.0% (3,194 kg/ha) compared to the control (2,956 kg/ha), while the 4L/ha treatment resulted in a 12.7% yield increase (3,333 kg/ha). These findings suggest that a higher total application rate (4L/ha) is more effective in boosting soybean yield compared to a lower dose, demonstrating PRULA Premium Care’s potential to maximize productivity.

Effect on the Yield and Number of Pods and Nodes on Soybeans

Soybean Field Trial, Buenos Aires, Argentina

The increase in overall yield is due to an increase in the number of nodes and pods. We suggest multiple applications of PRULA Premium Care to ensure higher yields.
