Formulations

FORMULATIONS

The three PROTIVATE formulations support various application methods that can fit the equipment available for growers or retailers. This provides a flexible way to put nutrition right where the crop needs it.

Each formulation contains phosphate, manganese and zinc. These nutrients help support shoot and root growth during crop establishment, photosynthesis and drive the metabolic reactions needed for a plant to reach optimal yield potential.

Protivate_NU4-DRI-WordMark
NU4-DRI

Most commonly used in corn and major row crops, NU4-DRI contains nitrogen, which is a critical component in the building blocks of proteins and is needed for the chlorophyll molecule to enable photosynthesis. Also, this formulation is grower-applied directly in the planter.

Protivate_NU5-DRI-WordMark
NU5-DRI

Ideally formulated for use in soybeans and all other major pulse crops, both NU5-DRI and NU5-LUX contain iron and molybdenum which can contribute to improved metabolic processes, support proper nodulation development and efficient nitrogen fixation.

Protivate_NU5-LUX-WordMark
NU5-LUX

Unlike NU4-DRI and NU5-DRI, NU5-LUX is used in downstream applications. This formulation also contains an added shine component to enhance the finished appearance of the seed.

4 BU/ACRE YIELD ADVANTAGE

A recent study across four locations shows the full nutritional package offered in PROTIVATE NU4-DRI gives growers a 4 bu/acre yield advantage over talc and graphite*.

* The underlying data was provided by AgRevival, Agrithority and Michigan Ag Commodities. Neither the organization nor the individual researchers referenced, endorse or recommend any product or service.

A DEEPER ROOT SYSTEM

A closer root zone application can create a deeper, more developed root system so crops are better set to withstand yield-limiting weather conditions. In a root growth mass study, PROTIVATE NU4-DRI resulted in root growth two times larger than the untreated control.*

* Based on internal data generated by Compass Minerals R&D, Stillwell KS, 2019.
