Join our panel discussion, moderated by Cotton Grower Magazine and featuring industry experts Dr. Katie Lewis (Texas A&M), Damon Dowdy (TerraTek), and agronomist Dr. AJ Foster (ICL) as they explore the science of foliar applications, application timing, and the critical role of potassium (K) in promoting plant health.

What You’ll Learn:

• Fertilization Efficiency: Strategies to maximize nutrient investments and reduce waste
• Potassium Sources: Compare traditional, foliar, and multi-nutrient options like Polysulphate®
• Application Timing: Best practices for potassium applications, especially during critical growth phases
• Foliar & Soil Applications: Understand how foliar potassium can complement soil applications for better results

Featured Products:

• Polysulphate®: A multi-nutrient solution (S, K, Mg, Ca) that supports better crop performance. This slow-release mineral fertilizer that has the capability to provide a sufficient and continuous supply of S to satisfy all the needs of the growing cotton crop, plus low chloride K.
• Nova® (WSFs) Foliars: Nova FLOW™ (5-10-20 +9Mg 11.7S 0.5B) is a standout choice for cotton growers seeking to meet the nutrient demands of their crop during peak bloom. It is a highly soluble alternative to magnesium and potassium nitrate loaded with N-P-K, plus sulfur, magnesium, and boron.
