BLOOMFIELD, NEB. (RFD NEWS) — From planting to spraying to monitoring, growers are leveraging every new technology available to them to maximize and sustain crop potential. As more research is done to explore the soil-plant microbiome relationship, the clearer it becomes: the greatest opportunity for increased yield—and a stronger Return on Fertilizer Investment (ROFI)—lies in the subtle, powerful interactions happening beneath the surface.
As farmers finalize plans for the spring planting season, many are looking for ways to manage risk while protecting returns in a challenging economic environment.
Keith Byerly with The Mosaic Company joined us on Monday’s Market Day Report to share investment strategies for the season ahead.
In his interview with RFD News, Byerly offered advice for growers working to make every investment count and discussed what a balanced approach across the entire operation looks like when making financial decisions.
He also addressed fertilizer-specific considerations, including how farmers can optimize those investments and how to evaluate potential cuts without negatively impacting profitability.
By combining innovative fertilizer technologies and biologicals with the latest management practices, tools, and technologies, Mosaic hopes to transform what is possible through Advanced Crop Nutrition.
