John Kempf takes to the whiteboard to explain 2 key benefits from a late-season cobalt application:

1️⃣ Stimulating cytokinin production at the root tip, which triggers a flush of root growth. That reinvigorates nutrient absorption at the critical grain fill stage
2️⃣ Delaying plant senescence to continue photosynthesis later in the season.

On a recent podcast, Jake Brewer described how a $3.50-$7 Rebound™ Cobalt foliar application gave a 10-bushel response on corn. Now that's a nice ROI! We've seen similar results in soy, vegetables, and fruit.
