That’s what maximizing your Return On Fertilizer Investment (ROFI) is all about.
And PowerCoat can help.
PowerCoat is a biological coating that is a perfect complement to your granular fertilizer applications to improve nutrient utilization for greater plant growth and vigor, helping to maximize ROI from fertilizer inputs.
Formulated with proven strains of Plant Growth Promoting Rhizobacteria (PGPR), including select Bacillus species, PowerCoat improves nutrient utilization by producing organic acids and enzymes that help convert dry fertilizer into plant-available forms. It’s compatible with a wide range of dry fertilizers and nutrient stabilizers and offers a 24-month shelf life in concentrate form, with up to 18 months of stability after impregnation.
Applied at key growth stages, PowerCoat is an economical way to improve your ROFI.

Return on Fertilizer Investment
Additional nutrient utilized calculated using typical corn fertilizer rates in the USA (180 N, 90 P, 160 K) multiplied by the treatment effect increases in total nutrient uptake. BioPath applied 16 fl oz/A with sidedress nitrogen.
Additional Investment Utilized by multiplying the increase in nutrient utilized times the cost of nutrients today. Nitrogen $ utilized calculated using Urea $548/ton, Phosphorus $ utilized calculated using MAP $810/ton, Potassium $ utilized calculated using Potash $447/ton. Fertilizer Prices.
Nutrient uptake data reflects the average difference of 325 corn plants across 12 locations. Total nutrient uptake = biomass x nutrient concentration. Additional nutrient utilized calculated using typical corn fertilizer rates in the USA (180 N, 90 P, 160 K) multiplied by the treatment effect increases in total nutrient uptake. BioPath applied 16 fl oz/A with sidedress nitrogen.
