Fertilization brings together highly concentrated and stabilized nitrogen with a urease inhibitor, which reduces losses due to volatilization

The rains in São Paulo and Minas Gerais final months of last year and forecasts pointing to normality in rainfall until March points to a positive scenario for the market sugar energy at the beginning of 2022, especially after the dry and harvest frosts previous.

So that positive perspectives come true, the sugarcane producer must consider not only the conditions climate, but also soil health and fertility management, fundamental to that plants have better development. Remembering that the areas of Sugarcane cultivation may be deficient in some essential nutrients for culture.

A correct fertilization and conscious, In addition to ensuring the vegetative development of the sugarcane field, it also allows roots develop not only on the surface, but also in deeper layers deep – which is essential in a semi-perennial culture. “How can we not control the climate, to achieve optimal crop productivity, we need use appropriate technical information and correctly manage the soil and culture”, says Maria Luisa Aguiar, Performance Products manager at Mosaic Fertilizers.

Therefore, to guarantee a more profitable and CHAIN , the producer needs invest in synergy between nutrients. To achieve this, Mosaic Fertilizers developed the Excellen, a product exclusively based on stabilized urea (46% nitrogen).

A formulation of nitrogen highly concentrated and stabilized with urease inhibitor reduces losses due to volatilization and generates benefits such as a reduction of around 20% in costs with storage, improved operational management with reduced losses of inputs during handling as the granules do not harden and reduce the potential for burning of leaves in sugarcane crops. “Nitrogen is one of the nutrients most absorbed by plants and is involved in the formation of structural and metabolic components, being essential for crops healthy and high sugarcane productivity”, explains Maria Luisa.

counting on the Portfolio more complete than market offering soil nutrition, Mosaic Fertilizers invests constantly developing technologies that generate chemical benefits, physical and biological factors to soils and production processes. This way the company helps farmers achieve the maximum productive potential of crops, contributing to the expansion of more sustainable agricultural systems and adapted to climate change and food demand scenarios. “In addition to the solutions in soil nutrition, our team of agronomists also works in the field to advise farmers to make the best decision to achieve the productive potential of their crops. Excellen promotes fertilization 25% more uniform nitrogen supply, saving 20% ​​of machine hours”, he adds Maria Luisa.
