Guarantee® Hi K Seaweed Extract Increases Peppermint Oil Yield and Gross Return
Mint is a perennial crop with a shallow root system and relatively high nitrogen demand. Mint is planted in rows using stolons and runners from existing fields. It can be very susceptible to various pest pressures such as nematodes and verticillium wilt. Mint stands generally last 3-5 years.
A 2019 study by Megan Townsend, Crop Matters, LLC, showed Guarantee® Hi K Seaweed Extract
-
produced a higher oil percentage than the untreated grower standard.
Guarantee® Hi K Seaweed Extract also
-
increased the Gross Return by $101/acre (11%) due to higher oil content.
The trial took place during the second cutting window. Yield was moderate, as expected for the second cutting.
The higher oil content in Ocean Organics treatments resulted in greater oil yields even though there were no statistical differences in biomass yield.
StressRx® Ag (another seaweed extractbased Ocean Organics product), also increased oil yield in this trial without a corresponding increase in biomass yield.
Guarantee® Hi K increased oil yield in pounds per acre compared to the untreated control.
Ocean Organics premium Seaweed Extracts are made from freshly harvested Ascophyllum nodosum, also known as Rockweed, grown in the inner tidal area of the Atlantic Ocean in Midcoast Maine.
The second application of Ocean Organics products was made to the foliage when there was 6” regrowth from the first cutting.
