The use of nitrogen in agriculture can be complicated as it is an important crop nutrient, but also a big polluter.
So, Corteva Agriscience created a Nutrient Maximizer Team to teach producers about nitrogen stabilizers, which keep applied nitrogen in the fields and out of the waterways. Not only will this limit pollution, but it can save farmers money as input costs continue to rise by keeping nitrogen in the root zone, therefore reducing the need to apply extra.
The company has products that work with a wide range of fertilizers.
