Is anyone using suspension fertilisers with avadex in a mintill situation.
I was told avadex wouldn’t work with min till cos it won’t get good coverage with clods and trash etc, but I’m told avadex spread in the suspension fertiliser gets better coverage. The question is, is it enough to make it worthwhile?. Any help greatly appreciated.

Liquid stuff not as strong as granule ,
Find a nice tma4 On a small light tractor on Carlos fang dango wheels , and get it on correctly , Omex looks a bit hot and miss whst we saw this year at neighbours on his beet then ran out and left half a breed . Yes they had to come back with a bit to finish it
Do 6 or 12 round some fields , and odd one all of them .

Agree the liquid isnt as good but omex add the granulars to the suspension mix.

I used a can on liquid around a headland the first year it came out and I couldnt see where It did any good at all.

I have a tma4 mounted on a 4 wheel chassis so can be mounted or trailed for sale

Chatting to our rep at Omex. He says they’ll mix fine as they are both clay based products. And that there will be better coverage as it will adhere to the soil surface better being plastered on with a wet product. Also better activation as it’s wet. We happen to have a suspension kit on a second hand spreader we bought. My worry is the amount of trash on top. I don’t want to pay a lot of money for applying avadex if it ain’t gonna do the job
 
We use Avadex and notill use a techneat air spreader on a 27 m sprayer

in 2018 the fields we did not use Avadex were the only wheat fields with black grass
they were after linseed and we did not think it was drilled deep enough
next time we increase seed rate drive slower with the drill and use Avadex any way

with notill often have more moisture than cultivated

Any residual chemical will be affected by trash to a greater or lesser extent.
