FERTILIZERS:
Plant life requires some 13 plant food elements. Any of these elements, or nutrients, are cloaked under the name fertilizer. The 3 primary nutrients are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and potassium (K), with calcium (Ca), magnesium (Mg) and sulfur (S) as secondary nutrients. Trace nutrients comprise the remaining. . Boron and zinc are stocked
Andre & Son operates a custom blending fertilizer plant, which allows for the manufacture of virtually any analysis requested. It’s easy to see that because of soil need variations plus the inherent differences between crops, that innumerable analyses are requested. Hence, the value of a custom mix plant. The importance of having known nutritional requirements, as acquired through professional soil sample testing is important. Why guess when working with a rather expensive commodity.
