Nutra-Flo has fertilizers specific for each crop

Mar 16, 2015

Available for corn, soybean, wheat and cotton

With new technology, seed varieties and other tools being developed for precision farming and agriculture, it is slowly turning from a practice to an art form.

Farmers, like painters, must use the proper brushes, tools and paint combinations on different parts of their canvas to bring them to life.

Nutra-Flo from North Sioux City, South Dakota, introduced its RoMax Performance Series, a line of fertilizers designed for the specific crop the farmer is planting. The products are available for corn, soybean, cotton and wheat.

“Our team of expert agronomists created these platforms of N-P-K and micronutrients based on proven crop response,” said Jason Glover, Nutra-Flo Director of Product Development in a press release.

“Complex interactions between N-P-K and micronutrients ensure essential crop functions take place throughout early development, and early development leads to yield gains.”

RoMax wheat is designed to enhance the early season growth and promote root systems that can withstand drought and winter kill. It encourages tillering, improves early season growth which also allows for more grazing potential and can improve water usage and nitrogen efficiency.

RoMax wheat also comes with a guaranteed analysis based on an application rate of 4 – 10 gallons per acre:

Total Nitrogen (N) ........................................9.0%

Available Phosphate (P2 O5 ) .................... 24.0%

Soluble Potash (K2 O) ....................................3.0%

Copper (Cu) .................................................. 0.08%

Manganese (Mn) ........................................ 0.08%

Zinc (Zn) ........................................................ 0.05%

Join the discussion. Is RoMax something you might consider using for your wheat or other crops?

Video: Dr. David Rosero: Fat Quality in Swine Diets

In this episode of The Swine Nutrition Blackbelt Podcast, Dr. David Rosero from Iowa State University explores the critical aspects of fat quality and oxidation in swine diets. He discusses how different types of lipids affect pig performance and provides actionable insights on managing lipid oxidation in feed mills. Don’t miss this episode—available on all major platforms.

Highlight quote: "Increasing levels of oxidized fats in swine diets reduced the efficiency of feed utilization, increased mortality, and led to more pigs being classified as culls, reducing the number of full-value pigs entering the finishing barns."

Meet the guest: Dr. David Rosero / davidrosero is an assistant professor of animal science at Iowa State University. His research program focuses on conducting applied research on swine nutrition and the practical application of smart farming. He previously served as the technical officer for The Hanor Company, overseeing nutrition, research, and innovation efforts.
