Abstract
  • Surface crusting of soil after planting can result in poor emergence and reduced stands. The use of polysaccharides and polyelectrolytes for soil conditioning has been found to improve seedling emergence. This trial evaluated the use of a molasses and nutrient based soil conditioner (Bright Sun Soil Booster, Cargill Inc., Minneapolis, MN) and a polyacrylamide soil conditioner (P.A.M., Complete Green Co., El Segundo, CA) applied in the planting row for improvement of seedling emergence.
