Why Agroblen® Total is the Best Solution for Corn Fertility:• Nutrients supplied with Agroblen® Total are released consistently across the crop cycle. This results in
better crop nutrient uptake efficiency, higher grain quality and yield. • Conventional uncoated fertilizers are inefficient often at a level 25-50%, due to leaching or volatilization. Agroblen® Total meters out all applied nutrients evenly and predictably across crop-critical stages, maintaining optimum N,P,K levels in soil solution, even following heavy rains. • Agroblen® Total program allows growers to better utilize their time with minimized trips to fields, less
machinery wear and tear and most importantly saving growers’ time and money.• The number of fertilization applications required is decreased.• The Agroblen® Total blend provides less nitrogen loss due to leaching compared to the conventional fertilizer sources. • Proven performance year after year.
