Dr. Scott Walker is your best resource for trial data. Call Carlisle Liquid Starters in Carroll, MB.

Never a good sign when I have to call a company selling the product to access data.

Has anyone heard Dr. Don Flaten give his opinion on this stuff? Now there is a credible soil scientist who is most definitely not in the pocket of anyone.

Don Flaten can't be trusted on any data. He's usually an NDP schill at least when it comes to phosphorus and Lake Winnipeg and farming.

FYI we use Lignohumate and see a return. The investment is small and greatly enhances phosynthesis, root development and even speeds maturity. We use it foliar at .5- .75 L/acre. Most of our soils are a ph of 7.5 - 7.7. There is no benefit on lower ph soil. We have a quarter that is a ph of 5 and we don't use it there.

We currently apply foliar. Canola plants get real excited with humane applied at bolting.

That's my take, my advice is try a bit yourself to see. Leave a check if you want. The investment is small. Don't let sourpuss Tweety dissuade you from giving it a chance. As far as scientists, I've met very few I'd give the time of day to, especially Don Flaten.

I too wanted to learn more of this person's research/trials and like you could not find a Dr. Scott Walker.
Did however find a D. Scott Walker of Manitoba who has a consulting firm. I note this person does not have a doctorate, rather a 2 year diploma in Horticulture from Ontario College.

Also note he is a "Licensed agent of Lignohumate® Technology"

Not exactly unbiased if this it the Dr. Walker we are to learn from.

I would have to disagree on that. Strange mentality to trust companies selling products to you with no real data but you dont trust a soil scientist. To each his own. Yes academics are usually a little on the left side of the spectrum but that doesn't mean they aren't credible.

The most credible experts are the farmers that have used the product, instead of complaining about the product, try the damn product yourself.

Sorry don't have time to run an experimental farm for every new product that comes out. This is why we have public funded research and producer checkoffs. This thread was very useful to me. Since nobody can produce any meaningful data this product will be filed in the sake oil drawer.
