The market is segmented into fertilizers, pesticides, adjuvants, and plant growth regulators, with key applications in crop-based and non-crop-based sectors. ...
Placing fertilizer within the seed row has been long-standing practice for many farmers across the prairies. Having those nutrients close to the seed makes it easily accessible by the plant, and can help the crop out of the ground and into the sun. Potash fertilizers and other nutrients, such as phosphate, are immobile fertilizers, meaning they don’t travel more than a half-inch through ...
During drought or dry conditions, salinity and pH levels can change quickly in the soil. While the forecast shouldn’t entirely dictate how you manage your farm, understanding and performing the best farming practices when adding seed-placed nutrients can help save your yields when the rain fails to ...
Soil NPK sensors are devices that measure the levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) in the soil. These three elements are essential for plant growth and are often added to the soil as fertilizers. ...
Soil NPK sensors are devices that measure the levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK) in the soil. These three elements are essential for plant growth and are often added to the soil as fertilizers. ...
Decisive Farming uses the principles of variable rate nutrition to create custom fertilizer formulas, offering different levels of nitrogen, phosphorus, potassium and sulphur, all based on the needs of the different segments of a farmer’s field, like “a digitized prescription,” Donald says. ...
As maize becomes a major source of livestock feed, plant breeders prioritize starch content and yield, while protein content and taste become minor considerations. The use of nitrogen fertilizer further reduces the importance of seed nitrogen content. ...
The price of nitrogen fertilizer is always in flux, but as of recently there is a distinct and obvious spike. Fertilizer prices are on the rise. Meanwhile the broad use of fertilizer in agriculture has lead to massive-scale leaching into major bodies of water creating an epidemic of nutrient pollution. ...
On any given year, flooding creates havoc within your nutrient management and fertilizer strategy. Today, as fertility product costs, nitrogen in particular, have skyrocketed, the problem is intensified. ...
L., & McDermott, M. (2014). Reducing nitrogen fertilizer application as a climate change mitigation strategy: Understanding farmer decision-making and potential barriers to change in the US. ...
Organic fertilizer pellet machine is a type of devices that uses poultry and pig manure as the main basic materials, includes a certain amount of nitrogen fertilizer, phosphate fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, magnesium sulfate, ferrous sulfate as well as other materials, as well as makes use of rice ...
Efficient use of water in commercial agriculture applications enabled by the GroGuru solution keeps fertilizer in the root zone of the crop, reducing Nitrate usage and leaching into the groundwater, and providing improved management capabilities for sustainable ...

Understanding your NUE score is pivotal to understanding not just nitrogen use efficiency, but also your soil’s overall potential. Effectively and efficiently managing inputs is one of the best ways growers can lower operating costs, maintain yield and reduce waste, but with so many factors impacting the production of each bushel, it can be hard to tell what ...
Research has shown that reducing nitrogen inputs in August/September causes earlier flower induction (J. Carew, pers. comm. 2015). However, boosting nitrogen nutrition during flower initiation increased the number of inflorescences compared to a control where nitrogen was not increased in the June bearer “Korona” (Sønsteby et ...
Organic fertilizer production machine is a kind of equipment which takes chicken and pig manure as the main raw materials, adds a certain amount of nitrogen fertilizer, phosphorus fertilizer, potassium fertilizer, magnesium sulfate and other substances, uses rice bran, yeast, soybean meal and sugar as biological ...
The new two-in-one organic fertilizer granulator adopts two-stage multi-stage granulation, which is an ideal process product for organic-inorganic granulation; It can also be used to make high nitrogen fertilizer and other compound fertilizers. ...
Real-time monitoring can help provide timely soil moisture information specific to a field location, which can help inform crop management decisions, such as nitrogen fertilizer inputs, yield opportunities and pest risk. Soil scientists and agronomists can help with interpretation, but once you spend time monitoring in your own fields, you will become the expert ...
Huaqiang compound NPK fertilizer granulator was used for fertilizer production. After the material enters the drum body, it moves up and down under the action of gravity, centrifugal force and friction between the materials until it reaches the required particle size and overflows from the outlet. Characteristics of NPK granulator for Huaqiang compound ...
This unavailability means that gaseous nitrogen must be fixed into a form that plants can use, either through the production of commercial fertilizer or symbiotic nitrogen fixation. ...

Where are food and farming in the ten-point green plan? Along with colleagues across the environmental movement, I have been anticipating Boris Johnson’s Green Speech today, where he set out a 10-point plan for how the UK will meet Net-Zero. All eyes were on the landmark new commitment to bring forward the ban on petrol and diesel car sales to 2030. But where were food and farming? If we ...
