Sulfur
Benefits of Use:
- Improves plant respiration
- Increases photosynthetic rates
- Plays a key role in Ferredoxin, a protein involved in electron transfer
- Is involved in the formation of amino acids such as Cystine and Methionine, which are used to form protein
- Plays an important role in carbohydrate and lipid metabolism
- Sulfur deficiencies have been known to increase incidence of certain plant diseases
Deficiency Symptoms—When to Apply:
- Chlorosis in leaves from sulfur or nitrogen deficiency
- Stunted growth
- Reduced protein formation
- Crops sensitive to diseases

X-Tend® B With Micro Carbon Technology® Improves Barley Yield and Net Income: Year 3
Background Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer (EEF) additives can improve crop production. Humates have been shown to improve crop yield. The Huma® EEF additive X-Tend® B is a concentrated Micro Carbon Technology® product derived from humates with high levels of organic acids and nutrients that is formulated to be blended in liquid fertilizers or to be impregnated
Huma Pro® Stimulates Rhizophagy Cycle of Microbes to Increase Root Growth
Objective The purpose of this research project was to evaluate how humic acids stimulate microbial activity and initiation of the rhizophagy cycle (in which plants cultivate microbes on their roots and then absorb them to extract their nutrients). Huma® Huma Pro®, a liquid 6% humic acid product, was used as the humic acid biostimulant source.

Seeing is believing. And I’m convinced the recent WASDE reports on crop production aren’t lying. Over the weekend we took my son to college. Our scenic journey through farm country – beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all – took us deep into the Corn Belt. The projected 2024 corn yield in the Prairie State
NITROGEN vs. CARBON – NEW AND IMPORTANT INFORMATION
For decades the conventional thinking has been that applications of synthetic nitrogen fertilizers help enhance soil carbon levels by stimulating soil microbes to feed on organic matter from crop residues. New research indicates that, in fact, the opposite may be true.A group of scientists at University of Illinois says that research from the Morrow Plots,
