PUMPKIN TREATMENT STUDY

A research farm in Pennsylvania tested their standard pumpkin fertilizer program against that program including two rates of granular AZOMITE® on Gladiator Pumpkins. All fertilizer was broadcast on the plots three weeks after planting in early July. There were four replications of the three treatments, in 15x50 foot no-till plots on a working production farm. Yields were collected and weighed and the return on investment calculated based on current market prices ($100/35-count bin).
