Results
- Agromaster Start Mini 21-21-5+2MgO+15SO3 is a highly efficient mini coated granulated fertilizer for winter wheat.
- Applied at sowing time, in furrows close to the seeds, this trial shows that by using less nutrients you can obtain better yields, reducing labor cost, soil compaction and improving farm logistics.
- Agromaster Start Mini can increase total yield by up to 40%, with a high protein level (13.4%), with a similar nitrogen application rate per hectare.
