Yield Results

Yield

Figure one below shows a yield gain of 60 Kg/Ha. Using the least significant difference method (LSD = 136 Kg) the yield gain is statistically non-significant.  Doing a basic ROI analysis on the numerical yield gain, not taking into account a boom spray operation the return on investment by spraying 500 mL/Ha of Bio-Forge is $36/Ha).
