Transcript of Intro to Nu-Trax P+
- 1. Agenda Introduction Phosphorus Nutrition What is Nu-Trax P+
Performance in the Field Case Study Q&A
- 2. Phosphorus Nutrition
- 3. Phosphorus Phosphorus is one of the major plant nutrients in
the soil Phosphorus is essential for cell division and development
of the growing tip of the plant For this reason, phosphorus is
VITAL for seedlings and young plants
- 4. Importance of Early Access to Phos
- 5. Plants Crave Phosphorus Early This graph demonstrates that
the plant is very hungry for phosphorus in the first 3 weeks
- 6. P Timing is Important
- 7. Early Season P Improves Root Growth
- 8. Why is early-season nutrition a challenge with granular
phosphorus?
- 9. Current Challenges with Phos Nutrition # 1 Early season P
availability can be limited # 2 Phosphorus is relatively immobile
in the soil # 3 Phosphorus is easily tied-up
- 10. # 1 Early season P availability can be limited Planting
into cool, wet soils limits nutrient availability When soils are
cool and wet, accessing essential nutrients can be difficult for
young plants
- 11. #2 Immobility is a challenge Phosphorus is relatively
immobile in the soil Nutrient tends to stay where it is placed
- 12. #3 - Availability is a challenge Phosphorous is easily
tied-up in the soil and quickly becomes unavailable and early
phosphorus deficiency can occur
- 13. The Solution.
- 14. Introducing. A new phosphorus-based fertilizer from the
makers of Wolf Trax Innovative Nutrients Utilizing DDP technology
Designed for better delivery of early-season nutrition Applied at
or prior to planting
- 15. Featuring 3 Important Technologies
- 16. CropStart Nutrient Package The CropStart Nutrient Package
is a custom blend of: P2O5 (25%) Zinc (20%) Manganese (5%) Nitrogen
(4%) These nutrients are known to be needed by young seedlings, but
are difficult to access early in the season or in cold, wet
soils
- 17. EvenCoat Technology Allows nutrient to thoroughly and
evenly coat each prill of dry fertilizer in a blend Once applied,
Nu-Trax P+ will not come off during transport or handling Even,
consistent blends and blanket-like distribution across the
field
- 18. Nu-Trax P+ is formulated as fine powder that is easily
coated onto dry fertilizer blends at your fertilizer dealer
EvenCoat Technology
- 19. EvenCoat Demonstration Urea + Iron DDP Urea
- 20. Benefit of EvenCoat Technology When every granule of dry
fertilizer is coated with Nu-Trax P+, young plants can easily
access the phosphorus, zinc and other nutrients essential for
early-season growth Up to 4 or 5 times more points of interception
for P and Zn
- 21. PlantActiv Formulation Nu-Trax P+ is chemically and
physically designed for better micronutrient availability
Formulated as a fine powder, the particle size is ideal for plant
uptake As a result, nutrients get into the plant quicker
- 22. Nu-Trax P+ Quick Facts Nu-Trax P+ provides an ideal blend
of P, Zn, Mn and N nutrients essential for optimal early growth
Nu-Trax P+ is easily coated onto dry fertilizer blends, for
blanket-like distribution and more points of interception for young
crops Physically and chemically designed the Nu-Trax P+ particle
size is optimum for plant uptake
- 23. When do I use it
- 24. Recommended Rates 2 lbs/ac coated onto a dry fertilizer
blend Rate based on ~ 200-225 lbs of granular fertilizer Replicated
field trials and grower-run trials validate the recommended rate
Should be applied at or prior to planting This ensures better crop
use and less loss to the environment

- 45. Just 2 lb/ac of Nu-Trax P+ fertilizer puts YOU in charge of
delivering the nutrition your crops need for a strong start!
- 46. Nutrient Stewardship The Time is Now
- 47. Over-application and run-off of P is a challenge Growers
need to find a better way to use P fertilizer Increasing regulation
around the world
- 48. 4R Nutrient Stewardship An important aspect of utilizing 4R
Nutrient Management on a farm is that there is consideration for
economic, social and environmental goals

- 58. Something to think about Nu-Trax P+ is great tool for EARLY
season nutrition Great fit for growers planting wheat this fall
Strong root system is important Spring application opportunity for
corn and soybean growers Especially important in cool, wet soils
Management tool for areas with P regulations
