Five-to-one investment returns For Tony Hoess, Winnipeg-based fertilizer merchant with Federated Co-operatives Limited (FCL), the uniform fertility of each YaraVita PROCOTE granule is a unique feature contributing to above-standard crop nutrition. It also conveniently fits within existing grower fertilizer programs You don't need a lot of micronutrients per acre. By coating each granule and applying it directly to the soil, crops can consistently locate and absorb these essential nutrients,” said Hoess. According to the manufacturer, the increased uptake efficiency provided by more evenly distributed nutrients means micronutrients are “only needed in grams per acre." “In Manitoba, we have good yield potential, and we're not limited that much a by poor soils. We have the potential to grow more. Every farmer n PLLI IS A RNRNRN know their potential, and what the limitations are,” said Hoess. “The point is maximizing yield and profitability. If you're growing wheat at 60 bushels an acre, your blends are probably pretty good. At 90 bushels, you're in. It's just continuing to break those yield barriers." Hoess' experience indicates YaraVita PROCOTE generally results in two to five additional bushels for the cost of one in wheat - a return on investment between two- and five-to-one. Data from the manufacturer shows similar investment returns with canola and corn.

You don't wait until you're short of phosphate to apply more. You want to maintain those levels,” he said, adding the different YaraVita PROCOTE formulations help growers address the unique micronutrient needs of each field. “If you wait for a shortage, you've already Lost a lot of yield. it's the same with micronutrients. Built for speed, safety and scale. Applying YaraVita PROCOTE to dry fertilizer does require special equipment.
