Protect Your Fertilizer Investment

Phosphorus is an essential element, required by all forms of life.  It is a key component of DNA and RNA, supports energy transport on a cellular level, and drives photosynthesis. In crop production, phosphorus plays many roles that support early-season plant development, allowing the seed to reach its full biological potential.

Phosphorus starter fertilizer applications set the stage for a strong growing season, but complicated soil interactions hinder phosphorus availability.  Soil pH levels, cold soils, and saturated soils contribute to these phosphorus uptake inefficiencies, depriving crops of the nutrition they require during a critical period of nutrient demand.  Nucleus Ortho-Phos with Nutris Formulation Technology protects your fertilizer investment by providing a readily available form of phosphorus that is seed-safe, with a neutral pH and low-use rates.  Nucleus Ortho-Phos 8-24-0 contains 100% orthophosphate, the form of phosphorus that is available for immediate uptake and use by the plant. The low salt index and neutral pH allows for seed safety and tank mix flexibility.

Nutris Formulation Technology further maximizes your fertilizer investment by acting as a nutrient complexing agent, allowing for phosphorus uptake when cold, wet soils are unable to meet nutrient uptake demand.   Nutris Formulation Technology increases the nutrient availability of applied phosphorus while releasing phosphorus currently bound in the soil.  Root development is enhanced allowing for greater surface area of nutrient uptake.  These attributes drive yield potential through improved emergence and plant vigor.  Phosphorus is vital to your crop’s success.  Maximize the season with Nucleus Ortho-Phos featuring Nutris Formulation Technology.
