Corn Foliar Results and Discussion Timing and nutrients are extremely important in foliar application of corn. We observed that these products would have been better if applied earlier in the season around the V3 to V5 stage. Both of the products tested in 2021 are good quality products. However one looks better in the data than the other. Would I use one product over the other? I would not make a decision off of this one trial. Both products need to be examined again at different timings to fully evaluate them. Both products have their own agronomic fit. In the

case of our trial the PowerAid performed better. If we look at our nutrient needs on the Orthman research farm we applied ample N, P, and Zn but did not provided much for micronutrients.
