Drive Crops Forward
with Starter Fertilizer
Getting crops off to a strong start is key to optimizing potential yield and profit. To protect crop vitality throughout the growing season, providing sufficient nutrients is essential from day one.
As you make final preparations for planting, consider the benefits of pop-up starter fertilizers. Balanced starters work to drive crops forward through accelerated germination, uniform emergence, enhanced root development, increased plant vigor, and improved stress tolerance. Pop-Up starter fertilizers can be an important tool for growers, especially when planting in cold, wet soil conditions.
Why Use Starter Fertilizer?
EVEN EMERGENCE
INCREASED PLANT GROWTH
Starter applications promote crop growth because a plant-available supply of nutrients is easily accessible to a seedling’s limited root system. Strong seedlings set the table for a strong crop.
ENHANCED ROOT DEVELOPMENT
Cold soils hinder root growth, reducing the plant’s ability to absorb nutrients. Starter fertilizers offer a higher concentration of critical nutrients available in the root zone at planting, which helps establish strong and healthy root systems. With greater root growth, stalk strength is improved and lodging is reduced later in the season.
IMPROVED VIGOR & STRESS TOLERANCE
To maximize yield potential, you must minimize stress. Adequate and balanced nutrition allows young plants to overcome abiotic stress and adverse growing conditions from start to finish.
