NACHURS Core Beliefs

Website Editor • July 10, 2017

NACHURS fertilizer is the best component of an overall well-rounded fertility program.  The days of putting on the entire amount of fertilizer pre-plant are over.  I decided to write this blog about NACHURS core beliefs because there are a lot of people that don’t know what NACHURS is all about.  NACHURS fertilizer came into existence over 70 years ago.  We believe the best way to sustainability is to follow the 4R nutrient stewardship program.  NACHURS has preached this from the beginning.  NACHURS fertilizer is highly soluble and readily available for plant uptake.  We believe in placing the right high quality nutrients in the right place using the right amount of fertilizer at the right time.  We advocate putting starter fertilizer with the seed at planting.  Everyone agrees that the key to high yields is a quick starting, uniform stand.   Cool wet soils inhibit root development and nutrient uptake.  We definitely had cool wet soils this spring in Nebraska this year.  We see the pictures every year of starter vs no starter (photo above). NACHURS recommends spoon feeding your crops for the most efficient use of applied nutrients.  In today’s farm economy producers must get a return on the fertilizer being applied.  When the markets are good, farmers try to build fertility levels in their soils.  Now, with markets being low, efficiency is the key to survival.  Broadcasting large amounts of dry fertilizer is not efficient and the return on investment takes a few years.  Producers today need to have a solid fertility plan. They need to precision place fertility so that crops can recover the applied fertilizer for maximum return on investment.  NACHURS has products that fit every application opportunity from dry broadcast to in-furrow starters, from side-dress, and foliar applications to fertigation.  Our new lineup of premium and specialty products offer cutting edge technology and the biological edge farmers are looking for.  Don’t go backwards, go to nachurs.com for more information on how we can help you.  We’re happy to talk fertilizer.

The effect of foliar fertilization on wheat yield.

We are at the point in the year where things are slowing down around the farm and it is time to reflect on the season to remind ourselves what we learned. Over the last couple of weeks, the District Sales Managers and I have spent some time reflecting on what worked well in the field and the challenges we faced too. Here are the top 5 things we learned from 2024 growing season: #1 Split applying Nitrogen and Sulfur is a practice that should be embraced on a yearly basis when growing corn. Do you remember how the planting season started and what happened in the first 60 days after the planters started rolling? Our field conditions started out dry with some areas of the corn belt showing up on the drought map. Then mother nature blessed us with rain that never stopped in some areas making it difficult to finish planting. Growers that had split applied their Nitrogen and Sulfur were able to avoid nutrient loss from the rain but also apply the nutrients when the crop needed it most. In the end yield was better on split applied nitrogen fields compared to fields that had all the N applied in the fall or spring before planting. #2 For the past 2 seasons in the North region, we have seen the benefits of adding NACHURS Humi-Flex FA to the in-furrow starter fertilizer. NACHURS Humi-Flex FA is our fulvic acid and it is becoming a valuable component in our starter fertilizer for many reasons. We are using it to chelate the nutrients in the starter fertilizer especially phosphorus. Humi-Flex FA also buffers the soil pH to neutral in that nutrient band keeping nutrients available in fields that have less then optimal pH for crop growth. Finally, we use Humi-Flex FA to create a healthy soil microbiome that leads to more root mass and nutrient uptake. #3 Nutrient uptake charts for corn and soybeans have been a great tool for our team to help our customers visualize the crops nutrient needs based on timing during the growing season.
