Converting To An Organic Or More Sustainable Cropping System

Converting to an organic fertility program will increase the productivity and quality of any cropping system in the long run. The length of time it takes to convert to a more sustainable system (one that reduces the number of non-renewable inputs) depends on the degree of degradation of the biological ecosystem, which is impacted by:

The addition of toxic substances to the system.
The continuous monocropping in the absence of a viable crop rotation plan.
The lack of attention to soil chemical imbalance (i.e. base saturation percentage out of balance).
Soil compaction from the overuse of heavy machinery on the fields.
Practices that reduce the presence of organic matter in the top 6" of soil.

Each one of these factors needs to be addressed in some fashion, but it takes at least three years in most cases to see meaningful results when converting to a more sustainable system. It takes time to detoxify the soil and open up the soil pores so that the soil microbes will multiply and begin to release nutrients, as crops use them.

Effectiveness of AGGRAND in Agricultural Crop Production Systems

How does AGGRAND 4-3-3 help create Nitrogen in the soil?

Answer: Symbiosis of nitrogen-fixing soil bacteria called rhizobia

Rhizobial (Ry-zo-bee-al) Symbiosis: A form of symbiosis that is found between nitrogen - fixing soil bacteria called rhizobia and plant roots. Hosts most frequently found are leguminous plants like beans (soy beans, broad beans and others). This type of symbiosis is readily observable since the nodules formed are numerous and usually are 1 mm to 3 mm in size

Hay and Pasture Guide

Reduce fertilizer costs to as low as $15-$30 per acre per application (typically 2-4 applications per season). Even smaller operations can reduce costs to as low as $20-$40 per acre per application.

Spray Nozzle Advice

Nozzle Recommendations to Avoid Plugging

Spraying AGGRAND fertilizers is an effective way to evenly distribute the product over a large area. Routine maintenance is required with most spray nozzles, whether commercial-grade sprayers or those designed for the homeowner, due to clogging caused by the products applied, contaminants in the water, mineral buildup, sand, sediment, and other debris.

For best performance select nozzles that deliver coarse to extra coarse droplet size. Coarse droplet size lends itself well to AGGRAND liquid fertilizer products, as well as reducing drift of product applications into unintended areas. To reduce the possibility of spray nozzle clogging when employing field, small backpack, or handheld sprayers, it is recommended the screen(s) prior to the spray nozzle(s) be removed.

For field sprayers, AGGRAND has found the use of the following TeeJet® Technologies spray nozzles effective: XR TeeJet®, Turbo FloodJet®, and StreamJet®. If your system or sprayer has an owner’s manual available or is covered under warranty, please refer to the recommendations of the manufacturer as any alterations without the manufacturer’s consent may void the warranty.

Foliar Feeding

We recommend that a soil analysis is done in order to determine a more accurate amount of AGGRAND nutrients required. Please take a look at the AGGRAND soil fertility guide for more information.
