SAN ANTONIO, TX (RFD NEWS) — Farmers are less than a week away from the Commodity Classic, the nation’s largest farmer-led, farmer-focused gathering. Attendees will have the chance to explore the latest trends, products, and innovations, including advancements in fertility management.
Galynn Beer of Tidal Grow Agri-Science joined us on Friday’s Market Day Report to discuss the challenges growers face in managing crop fertility, particularly amid rising input costs and variable nutrient demands.
Beer highlighted the company’s foliar-applied nitrogen product, Align-N, explaining how it differs from traditional soil-based nitrogen applications by improving efficiency and nutrient uptake. The product was recently launched in Canada, providing new options for growers north of the border.
Finally, Beer shared how viewers can connect with Tidal Grow Agri-Science at next week’s Commodity Classic to learn more about Align-N and other fertility solutions.
Nitrogen and phosphate markets are tightening ahead of spring, keeping fertilizer costs elevated while crop prices lag.
