Quantify the increase of phosphorus uptake with MicroEssentials® SZ® (12-40-0-10S-1Zn) applied
to corn compared to MAP (11-52-0) and MAP + Ammonium Sulfate (AS, 21-0-0-24S) + Zinc Sulfate (ZnSO₄ ,17.5-0-0-35.5Zn) blends in V6 corn.
Quantify the increase of phosphorus uptake with MicroEssentials® SZ® (12-40-0-10S-1Zn) applied to corn compared to DAP (18-46-0) and DAP + Ammonium Sulfate (AS, 21-0-0-24S) + Zinc Sulfate (ZnSO₄,17.5-0-0-35.5Zn) blends in V6 corn.
Organic matter (O.M.) plays a significant role in crop production and soil health. Building and maintaining a healthy soil that has more O.M. can aid in providing a stronger foundation for higher crop yields and resiliency to environmental stresses.
Carbon (C), especially carbon dioxide (CO2), is a topic that is constantly being discussed for its role in the environment.
Growers may consider reducing fertilizer rates for various reasons such as lower crop prices, higher input costs, lower than expected yields, or uncertainty of profitable yield responses.
Evaluate corn yield response to MOP (0-0-60) and K-Mag® Premium (0-0-21.5-10.5Mg-21S).
Evaluate soybean yield response to MAP, MAP + AS and MicroEssentials® S10®.
Evaluate soybean yield response to MAP (11-52-0) + MOP (0-0-60) and a combination of MicroEssentials® S10® (12-40-0-10S) + Aspire® (0-0-58-0.5B)
Evaluate onion marketable yield response to MAP, MicroEssentials® SZ® + MOP, and a combination of MicroEssentials SZ + Aspire®.
Evaluate soybean yield response to Aspire®, MOP and a MOP + Granular B blend in fall vs. spring applications.
Evaluate onion marketable yield response to MAP (11-52-0), MAP + MOP (0-0-60) and MAP + MOP + K-Mag® Premium (0-0-21.5-10.5Mg-21S).
Phosphorus (P) fertilizer is often added to cropping systems to increase yield, but growers should not overlook the importance of micronutrients like Zinc (Zn). Understanding some of the nutrient interactions that affect nutrient availability can help with management decisions like fertilizer source.
