Alberta Pulse Crop Trial — 15–20% Yield Increase

Trial Overview:

Multi-year independent field trials across Alberta pulse crop operations — including peas, lentils, soybeans, and fava beans — documented consistent yield improvements with OA-Ag's carbon-based foliar and fertigation program. Trials were conducted on commercial scale operations and measured against untreated control plots.

‍

Program Applied:

The Foliar Only Program was applied using FCB Castor Bean Foliar at key growth stages. The program required no changes to existing fertility infrastructure and could be implemented immediately alongside any existing input program.

Key Results:

• 15–20% yield increase documented across multiple crops and years
• Enhanced biological nitrogen fixation in treated plots
• Measurable improvement in crop quality and test weight
• No compatibility issues with existing spray programs
• Positive soil biology readings post-harvest

‍

Takeaway:

Pulse crops respond strongly to carbon-based foliar nutrition at critical growth stages. The OA-Ag Foliar Only Program delivers a fast return with minimal implementation friction — making it the ideal entry point for growers who want to see results before committing to a full program transition.
