Blueboy wheat makes dramatic comeback with 104 bushels per acre
MAES researchers at Poplar Hill Farm near Salisbury report experimental Blueboy harvests up to 104.6 bushels per acre, far above the normal 70, aided by Baylaton and Disolitain fungicides, high nitrogen, and a growth regulator to prevent lodging. The team notes disease control alone boosted yields by about 20 bushels and plans seek federal approval for Baylaton use in Maryland and neighboring states.
