17 month old Elatus....

came partnered with Alto Elite march 2019.
Didn't get used last summer as unnecessary.
Looking even more unnecessary this year....was to be partnered with a bit of teb and PTZ (mostly milling wheat) as a combined flag and ear.
Have 80% of full rate !!
Store it for another year - i'm not so keen.
What would you do?

Both Elatus Era and Elatus Plus are emulsions not suspensions, so no problem with settling out but shake them up a couple of times before next spring.

Try a tramline at a reasonable rate just to prove your strategy is right.
 
Products should be fine if stored correctly, keep in original packaging and stored nicely. The issue as above sometimes getting them out of the can rather than if they will actually work.

Ah yes I recall the 2019 vintage was particularly good. Excellent nose and full ruby colour. Many have laid this one down for future years as it is improving with age. I take it your can has the Portugese cork and not some tacky screw top. Personally I am laying down some 2020 Ascra Xpro and Revystar.
