Are You a Farmer on a Budget?

Choose the Solution that Best Fits your Wallet

 

Fertilizer is expensive. Many farmers just can't afford

to put on the amount that is actually needed.

Here's how to get the greatest bang for the buck!

 

AG-USA has numerous applications available to help you turn your crops into money makers! Here are some options. Remember, these products are highly concentrated.

• $9.99 an acre*
  A 10 oz./acre application of GroPal Balance A. Do not under-estimate this highly concentrated basic application . 
  
  It contains all that is needed to help increase yields AND nutrient density of fields that haven't had any chemical applications for at least 2 years. 
  
  But more than this, it initiates the process for rapid formation of new topsoil.
  

   

• $14.98 an acre*
  A 15 oz./acre application of GroPal Balance A. This is for transforming soil where light chemical applications have been made.
  

   

• $20 to $40 an acre*
  A 20 to 40 oz./acre application of GroPal Balance A. A heavier application of GroPal Balance A may give even greater results! On our video page you can hear Mike Cunningham tell how a 14 oz. application resulted in a 35% increase in grass, but that where he put on a 40 oz. application it yielded an amazing 73% increase over the control plots on the immediate left and right of the test plot.
  
  For growers who either are currently using chemicals or where they are seeking to restore a field where heavy chemical applications have been made, multiple applications of GroPal Balance A may be helpful. Begin with a 20 to 40 oz. application, then come back 3 or 4 weeks later with a second application. A third application may even be helpful where there has been heavy use of chemicals. Just wait another 3 or 4 weeks to put it out.
  
  Want the best yields? Start by broadcasting a 40 oz. application, then apply another 10 to 40 ounces in the row, on the seed or banded over the seeds.
  For huge root structures and superior mycorrhizal fungi, you may also add an ounce per gallon of GroPal Balance A to transplant water or water used as a root dip.
  
  
• $16.65 to $33.30 an acre foliar applications*
  A one to two quart/acre application of GroPal Balance C. This application is only recommended when you have accomplished all that you can with GroPal Balance A (see above) but still want to do more. Not only can one or more applications of GroPal Balance C increase yields, but it can also help to increase protein, test weights and relative feed value.
  
  These foliar applications may be chosen by farmers who want greater yields on higher dollar crops without using chemical fertilizers. For the greatest effect, apply up to a total of 1 gallon per year, divided between applications.

Is GroPal Balance complete, or do I still need to apply other fertilizer?

 

Great question.  GroPal Balance is complete.  In most situations it works best alone, without putting out any other fertilizer applications.

 

Why not apply any NPK?

NPK fertilizer is immediately available to the plant through passive uptake - when it is present the plant doesn't need to sequester sugars to obtain it. Therefore, applying NPK slows down the work of GroPal Balance.

97% of minerals present in the soil will not show up on a soil test because they are tied up in the soil and not available to the plant. When the plant is fed passively using inorganic NPK, the mother lode of minerals in the soil will remain tied up, resulting in a deficiency in the plant and unhealthy livestock.

Once GroPal Balance has been activated with at least 1.1" of water, it energizes the plant to sequester huge amounts of liquid carbon through the roots to feed the microbes in the soil. These microbes, in turn, convert tied up nutrients in the soil into available plant food. Within a week, the CEC of these nutrients will shoot sky high! The plant will not lack nutrients, but instead will be nutrient dense.

 

Why not put out lime?

Soils already contain huge amounts of calcium. However, this calcium is tied up. The bacteria in GroPal Balance make it available to the plant.

 

Lime isn't needed to balance pH. When GroPal Balance restores balance to the soil, hydrogen comes into balance, and therefore pH balance is restored. When lime is applied, it lowers CEC and slows down the action of GroPal Balance.

 

Why not apply organic fertilizers?

When organic fertilizers like fish and kelp are applied to the soil, they require a certain amount of energy to digest them. GroPal Balance is high in energy, but we want this energy to be used to activate the liquid carbon pathway. It can be counter-productive to use the energy in our product to digest organic fertilizers.

The nutrients in GroPal Balance are pre-digested by microbes, which means no energy is required to break them down and make them available to the microbes in the soil. They feed the microbes, then the plant feeds off of the microbes. Second, the huge array of bacteria in GroPal Balance very quickly colonize the soil, releasing additional nutrients. We just don't need the help of other organic fertilizer applications to feed the plant.

 

A possible exception

For those who normally put out nitrogen may wish to put out a reduced amount of either 28% or 32% liquid nitrogen. These two are more compatible with GroPal Balance than other forms of nitrogen.

 

Just add GroPal Balance to the tank, add any water, and then add your nitrogen. If you need to put on another type of nitrogen, it is recommended that you wait a couple of weeks and then follow up your nitrogen application with 10 oz. of GPB-A to help restore balance to the soil.

 

Once GroPal Balance is fully functional in the soil, no additional nitrogen should be needed. Want to boost yields? Then foliar feed with GroPal Balance C.

 

 

How about manures or compost?

GroPal Balance works very well with manures, compost and vermicast. Manures can help to supply the extra nitrogen that may be needed the first year.
