The 100 year Story of Winter Canola.
Distinctly Different than winter wheat.
It is soon to be thee crop for the Great Plains.
A story of opportunity and positive outlook.
Will Winter Canola survive a storm that killed 20,000 head of cattle
in SW Kansas?
May 20, 2017, Hugoton, KS. Winter Canola continues to come back and
bloom stronger and stronger.
Joel McClure is optimistic with a third
trip with insecticide (Diamond Back Moth) and also fungicide,
this is a good crop.
I need some shades! Reports Ben McClure.
Winter Canola is now in 8th week. Joel McClure field at, Hugoton,
KS.
Ben McClure, Kramer seed has a late planted dryland corn crop going
in….He sent in this photo today from his tractor seat watching his
brother Joel make history on the Great Plains.
Winter Canola, Rubisco, Hornet, Mercedes, Garnet and others
have survived the 60 MPH winds , 15
to 22 inches of snow in the area @ 30 to 32 F temperature at full
bloom, the 100 year storm Ursa, April 28 to May 1.
Amazingly the Winter Canola grew under a heavy snow packat freezing
temperatures.
Joel received the neighbors
blowing snow field which put down his 5 foot tall Winter
Canola and protected the blooming crop
under the snow.
Joel must have ended up with 8 to 10 inches total extra moisture
from the Snow Trap effect.
His Winter Canola fields might bloom 9 weeks.
You can call ahead for a tour.
May 2, Snow Trap with tall Hornet Winter Canola at the Hittle,
Irrigated site. The crop was about 55 to 65 inches tall. Planted on
September 9, 2016.
Mustang Banding for 30 inch winter Canola rows.
A spring feeding with Mustang P-51C, side dressed banded TAPPS,
March 7, 2017 .
Irrigated with 2 inches water just before the storm. The rate of 2
inches per week is considered a good irrigation program with the
crop growing 1.5 to 2 inches per day.
This crop was Just getting into high gear. It was growing at the
rate of 1.5 to 2 inches per day,
The picture shows the crop elongating into full bloom. The late
winter storm Ursa will strike in about 8 hours.
April 28, 2017 at noon.
Irrigation required with temperatures to 85 degrees F on April 28,
2017
A powerful field of Hornet is elongating in prime bloom. This field
was on target for the Ursa winter storm . Considered the storm of
the century . On May 1, 2017 with 20,000
dead cattle and no industrial movement for 1 week producers more of
less had written off Winter Canola crop.
This is once again a great Winter Canola
crop and headed for 100 bushels per acre.
April 29, Pueblo, Co, 9:00 AM. Ursa supplies about 7 inches of a big
dump of white, enough to get off of I-25 and find a Hampton Inn on a
Friday night.
Due west of Hugoton 150 miles. Joel McClure received to 2 to 3 times
more. This was a major storm of the century.
Hornet ready to take on Ursa.
Up in that SW Kansas blue sky is winter storm Ursa
forming up and coming into Hugoton, KS in about 8 hours.
High yield potential, banding into dormant winter canola Feb. 28,
2017. Dryland looks as good or better than irrigated. Dryland is
chemical fallow.
February28, 2017, Ready for side dressing of Exactrix TAPPS.
The Hornet variety of Rubisco is impressive. It shows good vigor and
growing crowns in dormancy.
Outstanding growth resulted in a period of 7 weeks to the date of
the storm April 28, 2017.

Fertilizer is a good buy all the way to $10,000
per ton.
Your Chance To Buy Blended Fertilizer for $10,000 per ton.
Your chance to buy 24-8-16 with micros, B,Zn,Cu, Mo, Mn, Fe is a
consideration in the big cities and not the Great Plains.
All Purpose Plant Food. Miracle Gro reveals that their product
results in “More beautiful plants that grow bigger”.
A big mark up at 30 to 40 times above cost of manufacture.
Miracle Gro is selling for $10,000 per ton
per 160 square feet.
This is the recommendation at the 8 ounce rate
by weight per 160 sq. ft.
At the proper rate per acre your large garden needs $1,361 per acre.
A total of 272 lbs. of Miracle Gro nutrient per acre.
Your 1 acre of garden crops require 65 lbs. N, 22 lbs. of P. 43.5
lbs, K. There is no mention of Sulfur.
Micros Boron at .0005 lbs. per acre and Zn at .0019 lbs. per acre.
Do corn growers need to make a move to Miracle Gro?
So if you were a corn grower and needed some help with getting the
fertilizer price in line you might want to consider TAPPS, TAPPKTS
and with Micros.
Exactrix TAPPS and TAPPKTS formulators using high analysis materials
at highest efficiency is a big change.
Corn growers across North America are discovering an economic hedge
with a high quality Exactrix patented process,
producing 12% to 18% more net income per acre at high yields.
You would want to band your TAPPS and TAPPKTS plus Micros Zn, B, Fe,
Cu, Mn, Mo, with a Mustang P-51CUE tool bar.
You would set up a controller with a script to make precision TAPPS
and TAPPKTS fertilizer for each part of the field in a different
blend.
What would be the cost for the fertilizer plant food? How many
pounds per acre of total material would be applied?
When producers take control of the fertilizer application using
Exactrix precision techniques the cost of each unit acre can be
reduced to about $60 per acre to produce $800 of gross income.
A $1,321 per acre investment in a garden probably will not produce
more than $1,321 per acre of income,
but it will produce a lot of pleasure growing your own crops.
Exactrix brings pleasure to all producers reducing tillage costs,
saving moisture, trapping snow, and raising highest possible
economic yields. Miracle Gro is not required.
Exactrix NPKS plus micros is highly crop available and in fact up to
166% to 200% more crop available.
Total Nutrient Costs are 6.92% of the gross income in
Exactrix/Yielder TAPPS, highly crop available No-tillage nutrients.
For Ben McClure, Average Nutrient Costs, $64.00 per acre at 141 lbs.

EXACTRIX TAPPS

At Colby, Kansas, December 7, 2016 a presentation was made by Joel
McClure for Kramer Seed Co, Ben McClure of Hugoton, KS.
Ben discovered 6.92% of the gross income was required to raise a
record breaking corn crop in the 275 bushel per acre range.

Click here for news about Ben McClure and his discoveries of
Exactrix TAPPS and TAPPKTS.
Sixty Six Years ago,
when Mode-O-Day department stores sold hats and ties.
When tillage farming was in and No-tillage farming was unheard of.
At Cypress, Texas (Houston) using Refrigerant Grade Ammonia to feed
crops and 82.5% N .
Anhydrous Ammonia, Ag Grade did not come until later, 1 gallon of
water per 1,000 gallons NH3 results in 82.4% N and sold as 82% N.
The tool, “Shreds the soil several inches deep.” Applied with a “
Tiller and Hoses attached to Claws” with a critical flexible hood.
Anhydrous Ammonia and Mr. Chester Turner and his staff makes the
news in Popular Mechanics, March 1951,
page 111.
It cost half as much and was dangerous enough to require trained and
skilled supervisors.
Texas has come a long way in hat design also.
I need one of those hats, and a tie to
wipe the sweat from my brow.
