It might not seem like it, but soon enough the winter will end and planting season will be here.
If they haven’t already, farmers must start thinking about the kinds of inputs they’re going to use on their farm.
One of the most important inputs for the success of a farm and can contribute to higher yields is fertilizer. Among the factors farmers need to take into consideration are the kind of fertilizer they’re using, its chemical makeup and when to apply it.
Eco Agro Resources out of Sarasota, Florida recently released their PENXCEL technology to help farmers get the most of out of their fertilizer.
The product is designed to deliver additives to both dry and liquid fertilizer by penetrating deeper into both kinds of fertilizers.
The PENXCEL has a low viscosity, allowing it to pour quickly in cold weather. It can blend up to 20% faster and research from West Texas A&M said PENXCEL provided consistent results under tough conditions.
“What our company is designed to do is build and develop enhanced efficiency fertilizer technologies and be able to deliver those to partners in the world who will further send it on to the farmers so that the farmers can be more efficient in their fertilizer practices,” Andrew Semple, CEO of Eco Agro Resources told Brownfield Ag News.
Speaking of fertilizer practices, a report by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations entitled “World fertilizer trends and outlook to 2018” suggests fertilizer use is going to surpass the 200 million tonne mark in 2018.
