Reducing fertilizer costs may be the best way for farmers to minimize costs and improve crop yields in a tricky economic environment.

At 1st Products, we have a team of knowledgeable, trustworthy people dedicated to your growing success. We provide high-quality equipment that supports your farming and gardening production. Our team has a wide range of products and expertise to offer so you can be confident that your purchase is the best for your needs.

The Economy of Your Crop-Growing Success

Whether you’re maintaining a turf or wanting to maximize your home garden’s or hobby farm’s food production, fertilizer plays an important role. Using a high-quality, well-balanced fertilizer improves your plants’ growth, and a good product supports roots and strengthens leaves and stems, thus improving the health and production of flowers and fruit from your crops.  However, if your application process is not effective, you could be wasting a lot of resources — time, money, and product.

The world economy and supply chain have been seriously affected and the global business environment is feeling the effects of the reduction in product and shipping and the exponential increase in costs. Farmers are hit dramatically by these conditions, and unlike other industries that can adapt more readily to supply, demand, and costs, agriculture cannot change the need for food.

Insight from Experts

Will Llewellyn, agronomist and agriculture consultant states in an article on Sound, “We can either eat less food, eat different food, or try to use less fertilizer to grow the same amount of food in order to address demand and keep prices from skyrocketing.”

The price per acre for fertilizer cost has doubled recently. Saving money on fertilizer is the most immediate way of reducing costs in food production. 

Agronomist Mike Howell says, “Optimizing returns on every dollar spent on fertilizer and crop nutrition holds the key to profitable crop production.”

Making the Best of Your Investment, Costs, and Return

Costs are always going to increase, and the cost of farm and garden production is no exception. The effective application of high-quality fertilizer that you invest in must be a top priority to get the best value out of your investment. It’s important to make every granule count for the health of your crops and the comfort of your bank account.

To combine both high yields with cost efficiency is the golden ticket. And the process of application must be easily sustainable.
