Researchers at Mosaic are using science and technology to manage crop nutrition. It is a cornerstone of their “Foundation for Sustainable Food Systems.”
The program started in Ohio and has already helped log more than five million acres.
“What we’ve seen in that is we’ve actually seen increases in nutrient use efficiency. We’ve seen some farmers actually look at, you know, variable rate technology across the field. So in some instances we’ve seen, you know, a reduction in fertilizer use on a particular field and still maintaining or actually improving crop production,” said Adam Herges, sustainability agronomist advisor for the Mosaic Company.
Through the program, Mosaic gives technical advice to farmers who may be dealing with limitations in production.
The phone call injected optimism into the soybean market, but actual Chinese buying and its timing will ultimately determine the extent of U.S. agricultural export benefits.
