LAKELAND, Tenn. (RFD News) — As the growing season advances, crop nutrition remains top of mind for soybean growers.
Chief Sales and Marketing Officer for Huma, Fred Nichols, joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to discuss how soybean nutrition has evolved over the years.
In his conversation with RFD News, Nichols said growers are placing greater emphasis on micronutrients, tissue sampling, and more intensive crop management.
Nichols says early planting and strong crop conditions have created yield opportunities that farmers can still capitalize on.
He says foliar fertilizer products are helping growers deliver nutrients more efficiently while reducing the risk of nutrients being washed away by rain.
