Weathering the Storm with Consistency

By now you’re most likely aware of current global fertilizer trends, as spikes in pricing and decrease in supply have affected the whole industry. You also know that fertilizers provide crops with the nutrients they need to grow their best, making them essential to the world’s food supply. We know that the last thing you need is more uncertainty in your day-to-day.

The good news? SUL4R-PLUS has maintained relative price consistency throughout the fertilizer fluctuation of the past 2 years, especially when compared to some of the other options out there. We’ve weathered the storm the best way we know how: with confidence, consistency, and a customer-first mentality. 

A recent Q&A article, Fertilizer volatility and the food crisis with John Baffes, Senior Economist at the World Bank Group, mentions that worldwide trends are affecting each and every part of the agriculture industry. Baffes states, when it comes to fertilizer prices, “For the next six months to a year, we don’t see how prices can come down.” 

Farmers Business Network (FBN) released their first-ever Fertilizer Price Transparency Report, an in-depth look at how up-trending fertilizer prices will impact application rates this fall and 2023 planting decisions. The FBN report indicates Fertilizer Prices and the Potential Impact of Sky-High Nitrogen Costs on 2023 Acreage Intentions, “FBN’s analysis exposed widespread fertilizer price variation across regions–especially with nitrogen fertilizer–which could suggest a lack of price transparency with possible implications for 2023 crop plans.”

At SUL4R-PLUS value price consistency and strive to ensure our customers are top of mind when making any adjustments. By keeping our prices consistent, regardless of season, we’ve set you up for success, even in the hard times. Ensuring you can continue to count on us for reliable and sustainable fertilizer, no matter the news you hear about the rest.

Bulk Up Your Winter Wheat: Increase Protein with SUL4R-PLUS

We all know the industry has been seeing a lot of challenges, and it’s not over yet. This article from Argus Media Group, Global wheat market braces for high-protein shortage, states, “The global wheat market is heading for an imbalance in the supply of high and low-protein milling grades this year, as above-average yields in the northern hemisphere have resulted in a lower-protein crop for the 2022-23 harvest.”

Luckily, SUL4R-PLUS can help North American wheat producers this winter. Thanks to season long plant-available nutrients, our fertilizer not only improves yield, it also improves the quality and protein content of winter wheat. Just take a look at this trial from Meyer Farms in Washington County, IL.

Dave Meyer has been a longtime SUL4R-PLUS client who’s seen the benefits firsthand. Dave uses SUL4R-PLUS on his wheat and in 2018 he shared with us that he was able to increase his yield by at least 10 bu/acre and 1-2 pts on test weight, which are numbers worth paying attention to.

Find out what SUL4R-PLUS can do for your wheat operations and how it can help the protein shortage.

Mr. Harpole brings data-driven points highlighting the impact that the current energy, food, and fertilizer crisis hitting Europe will have on food prices and food security worldwide.

If you haven’t heard it yet, we suggest taking a listen to The Power Hungry Podcast – Episode #133. In this episode, host Robert Bryce talks to John Harpole, president of Denver-based natural gas broker Mercator Energy. Mr. Harpole brings data-driven points highlighting the impact that the current energy, food, and fertilizer crisis hitting Europe will have on food prices and food security worldwide.

As with most supply chain disruptions, the N-P-K fertilizer shortage isn’t affecting one isolated market. With the shuttering of fertilizer plants across Europe, U.S. fertilizer prices are rising as the demand in Europe for U.S. fertilizer increases. We’re also told by Mr. Harpole to expect a 15-20% reduction in global grain production in the next two years. All of this is leading to a worldwide food shortage, most likely to hit the poorest parts of the world first with famine and death.

While this may seem dire, we know that there are possible solutions to be had. SUL4R-PLUS can be a part of those solutions. Our product can be helpful in these turbulent times, in spite of the rising costs for N-P-K fertilizers.

SUL4R-PLUS has proven to be key to providing a more balanced nutrition to our key crops, as well as increasing the uptake efficiency of other nutrients – especially nitrogen. We know that it can provide the world with a better fertilizer that can increase yields and help ease food shortages.

“The SUL4R-PLUS people were telling the truth. We saw elevated calcium and sulfur levels in the V-8 tissue samples and a 9 bu/acre yield bump on our 230 bu/acre corn at harvest.”

– Richard “Dick” Fischer, City View Farms, Lewiston, MN 

“We handle 12-13 different varieties of dry fertilizer, and SUL4R-PLUS stands out to me mainly for the quality of the pellet produced. I know the nutrient value is there, we’ve tested that, that’s not an ongoing concern, it’s a consistent product. But it’s mainly the quality of the pellet that comes into the barn. I have employees that have to work in that barn and when you have a product that’s poor quality, it really creates a lot of dust that’s not suitable to work in.”

Sulfate All Season Long

The ultimate purpose of fertilizer is to provide essential nutrients to your crops. That’s why SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer is designed to make nutrients available to your crops when and where they are needed—not simply dump chemicals into the soil. With unique sulfate release timing qualities, you’ll see the investment you make in your crops by choosing the right fertilizer turn into increased yields at harvesting time.

There are two main concerns when it comes to the timing of nutrient release. The first is how easily the nutrients are able to move from the fertilizer into your crops. SUL4R-PLUS’ patented granules dissolve instantly in contact with water, so your crops don’t need to wait for access to the sulfate that will help them thrive.

The second important point is how long those nutrients are available. Some fertilizers start strong by releasing lots of nutrients all at once, but then when your crops need them throughout the growing season, they’re long gone. SUL4R-PLUS solves this problem by offering gradual release sulfate that matches the nutrient uptake curve of most crops, so essential sulfate is available when your growing crops actually need it.

As you can see from the graph below, the sulfate release of SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer closely matches the natural nutrient uptake of a corn crop. It also provides more sulfate throughout the season than alternatives.

If you’re going to invest in fertilizer for the benefit of your crops, make sure you choose a fertilizer like SUL4R-PLUS that follows through on delivering nutrients to your crops.

Nourish the Population and the Planet

When you work in agriculture, you see the importance of a stable and thriving local ecosystem first-hand, every day. You depend on the natural cycles of the earth for good yields and healthy crops. You also become aware of the immense threat climate change presents to our way of life.

As the largest industry on the planet, agriculture has a major role to play in reducing harmful emissions and keeping the environment healthy. When farmers and producers like us make the decision to choose eco-friendly options in our businesses, it has a major impact—much more significant than an individual person choosing to recycle at home. SUL4R-PLUS takes our responsibility to the environment seriously and is one of the most sustainable fertilizer choices you can make.

SUSTAINABLE SOURCING OF MATERIALS

Our fertilizer is manufactured by recycling the bi-product from coal-fired power plantsWe make our fertilizer by capturing and recycling the emissions from coal-fired power plants. Using an existing source of sulfur rather than mining for new materials, we avoid the major damage to the planet caused by mining practices. One of the simplest and most essential rules of environmentalism is to use what you have whenever possible, and we’re proud to be one of the only companies that uses recycled raw materials in our fertilizer products.

KEEPING POLLUTANTS OUT OF THE ENVIRONMENT

In addition to sustainable sourcing, using these fossil fuel byproducts as one of our main materials keeps those by-products out of the atmosphere. Thanks to our intervention innovative process, the pollution created by these power plants is reduced and, what would be harmful chemicals filling the air, instead becomes nourishing fertilizer for crops.

REDUCING CHEMICAL LEACHING

Our patented process means that the chemicals chemistry in our fertilizer supports plant health and does not leach into soil and or water where it’s not needed. This reduces water contamination and waste as well as landfill waste. We believe water is one of the most precious substances on earth—out crops depend on clean water and so do we. That’s why we at SUL4R-PLUS have optimized our fertilizer to maximize the amount of value we provide with minimal waste or contamination.

WHY CHOOSE SUL4R-PLUS FERTILIZER?

If sustainability is important to you, then SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer is a choice you can feel good about. With proven increased yields, as well as many other positive impacts for your crops and soils, you can get reliable agricultural benefits in addition to making the right choice for our planet. It’s also a smart business decision. By choosing a sustainable fertilizer, your business partners will see on your ESG reports that you’re engaged in the current dialogue around climate change and that you’re thinking ahead to the future.

Reliable Increases for Less with SUL4R-PLUS

When so much about your work environment is unreliable, you need to be able to rely completely on the few factors you do control. One of the most influential of these factors is the fertilizer you choose. Your fertilizer investment can make or break a season—so don’t leave your yields up to chance.

Over the last few years, we tested our SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer in several field trials to recreate the results we had seen in the past. We knew that farmers and producers needed more than just a chance at improved yields, the improvement needed to be reliable.

A reliable increase in yields is just what we saw, proven in the numbers. In our trials, honey crisp apples saw a yield of 40.4 tons per acre—that’s an extra 8.2 tons per acre! These apples also had decreased incident of bitter pit, increased fruit brix, and increased fruit pressure making them sweeter and easier to store than usual. They also saw increases in leaf nutrient content, showing that the additional nutrients available in SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer are found throughout the plant. Sugar beets also enjoyed an increase in yield of 2.7 tons per acre with increased sugar content as well.

Almonds had an increase in yield of approx. 300 lbs per acre and an increase in nut size thanks to SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer. Potato and tomato both had an increase in marketable yield, with an additional increase in storage quality for the potatoes, thanks to a 10% decrease in Hollow Heart and an increase in nutrient levels for the tomatoes.

Honey Crisp Apples Almond Sugar Beet Potato Tomato
Increase Yield 40.4 ton per acre 300 lbs per acre 2.7 tons per acre 22 cwt per acre Increase in marketable yield
Increase in Marketable Yield – Decreased incident of bitter pit
– Increased fruit brix (sugar)
– Increase fruit		 – Increase in nut size – Increased fruit quality (sugar content) – Increase in storage quality through 10% decrease – Increase of nutrient levels in developing fruit

With consistently reliable increases across all five types of crops, SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer once again proved its ability to produce higher yields no matter what nutrients your crops need. Its ability to support healthy growth in such a variety of crops is especially useful for farmers who have diversity in their fields. Save yourself the hassle of finding a new fertilizer catered to the needs of each crop and do your crops the favour of giving them SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer. They’re sure to appreciate the extra support.

How to Boost Wheat Yield with SUL4R-PLUS

Producers growing wheat across the country are being faced with a big decision for the upcoming growing season right now—which fertilizer to choose. With fertilizer prices increasing, it’s more important than ever that you make the right choice. That means giving your crop everything they need to thrive.

While many producers concern themselves primarily with nitrogen when growing wheat, sulfur is a limiting factor for both yield and grain quality. In fact, a lack of sulfur is often mistaken for nitrogen deficiencies. Even if you have more than enough nitrogen for a robust and healthy crop, you won’t see those results unless you also have enough sulfur. With SUL4R-PLUS’s patented fertilizer formula, you’ll be sure to have all the nutrients you need for a sustained and successful growing season. However, sulfur sources are not created equal. To meet your crops’ sulfur needs, our fertilizer releases the nutrient at steady rate throughout the growing season.

Thanks to quantified field trials and many years of application on crops around North America, you can trust that SUL4R-PLUS will release sulfur to match plant needs while also recognizing the boot in your yield. In field trials from 2017, SUL4R-PLUS fertilizer provided a nine bushel (9bu/ac) per acre gain, with a 2lb per bushel better weight and 1.09% better protein than control. These results have been replicated in a new, 2021 field trial. With eight more bushels per acre than AMS and 1.38% more grain protein. Wheat that was planted with a SUL4R-PLUS application has once again has shown yield advantages compared other options.
