Get ahead for next year by addressing your nutrient removal
This growing season was filled with a range of weather challenges: Many crops had to contend with everything from an unusually wet year, wildfires, extreme heat and more. Another challenge that growers face every year — especially as today’s hybrid seeds are producing greater yields — is the nutrients removed from soil.
To meet high yield goals year after year, those nutrients will need to be replenished at the start of and throughout the next growing season.
Up to 60% of yield is dependent on crop nutrition
Mosaic science is focused on getting the most out of every acre.
Understanding Nutrient Use Efficiency
“Nutrient use efficiency is crucial for sustainable agriculture, as it helps maximize crop productivity while minimizing environmental impact,” notes Ross Bender, Ph.D., Mosaic Director for New Product Development. “Efficient nutrient use ensures that plants receive adequate nutrients for optimal growth, reducing the need for excessive fertilizer application and mitigating nutrient runoff and pollution.”
Calculate your nutrient removal
You can’t replenish what you don’t know is missing; find out what your harvest is removing from the soil. Select your crop and yield in our Nutrient Removal Calculator to discover what deficiencies to be aware of.
Once you have an understanding of what nutrients your soil could be missing, you can create a plan now to prepare for the next growing season.
