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: Lessons in Winter Farming + Certifying Naturally Grown + Work Life Balance w/ Broadfork Farm

We cover: we are chatting with Dan Gangon of Broadfork Farm in Virginia. I saw Dan and his partner Janet speak at the VABF conference a few years back and I just loved how down to earth they were about the ups and downs of winter farming, farming in general, and work life balance, which is a lot of what we chat about today. We are also gonna be talking about how and why they certify as Certified Naturally Grown, and how that label has worked for them.
