AgriTec International is at the forefront of agricultural innovation, committed to helping farmers maximize their yields through advanced soil treatment solutions. Advanced-Cal is a chelated liquid calcium treatment designed by us to improve soil health and optimize fertilizer uptake by plants. It combines liquid calcium with essential micronutrients and microbial enhancements, making it a comprehensive solution for improving soil fertility and boosting crop productivity. Advanced-Cal helps your corn & beans by offering a powerful solution that addresses common soil challenges and enhances plant growth. For farmers growing corn and beans, Advanced-Cal can optimize soil conditions, resulting in stronger plants, higher yields, and healthier crops.

Understanding Corn & Bean Health

Soil health is a critical factor in determining the success of any crop, and corn and beans are no exception. These crops require nutrient-rich, well-balanced soil to thrive. Unfortunately, many fields suffer from poor soil conditions, including low calcium levels, high acidity, and nutrient imbalances. These issues can lead to stunted growth, weak plants, and reduced yields.

Corn, for instance, is a heavy feeder, requiring significant amounts of nutrients, especially during the growing season. Similarly, beans need well-drained, fertile soil to develop strong roots and maximize their nitrogen-fixing abilities. Without proper soil management, both crops can struggle to reach their full potential.

Calcium, pH levels, and micronutrients play pivotal roles in maintaining soil health. Ensuring the right balance of these elements can make a significant difference in crop performance, which is where Advanced-Cal steps in.

Liquid Calcium in Advanced-Cal

At the heart of Advanced-Cal is its chelated liquid calcium formula. Calcium is a crucial nutrient for plants, playing an essential role in strengthening cell walls, enhancing enzyme activity, and facilitating nutrient transport within the plant. However, many soils are deficient in calcium, particularly in regions with acidic conditions.

Advanced-Cal addresses this issue by neutralizing soil acidity and raising pH levels, creating a more favorable environment for plants to absorb nutrients from fertilizers. The chelated calcium in Advanced-Cal ensures that calcium is readily available to plants, leading to improved base saturation in the soil. For corn and beans, this means stronger plants with enhanced resistance to stress and diseases.

By balancing soil pH and increasing calcium levels, Advanced-Cal promotes better root development, leading to healthier plants that can uptake nutrients more efficiently. This is especially important for corn, which demands significant amounts of calcium during key growth stages to support its rapid development.

Role of Micronutrients in Crop Health

In addition to calcium, Advanced-Cal is enriched with a blend of essential micronutrients, including boron, manganese, iron, sulfur, and more. These micronutrients play vital roles in various physiological processes within the plant, such as photosynthesis, enzyme activation, and nutrient uptake.

For example, boron is essential for cell wall formation and reproductive growth, which directly impacts the development of corn kernels and bean pods. Manganese aids in photosynthesis and nitrogen metabolism, ensuring that both corn and beans can convert sunlight into energy more efficiently. Iron is crucial for chlorophyll production, which enhances the plant’s ability to capture sunlight and produce energy.

By incorporating these micronutrients into its formula, Advanced-Cal helps optimize plant growth, leading to stronger, more resilient crops. Corn and beans benefit from this nutrient-rich soil environment, resulting in improved yields and overall plant health.

Microbial Enhancements Unlock Soil Potential

One of the standout features of Advanced-Cal is its microbial enhancement component. Microbes play a critical role in soil health by breaking down organic matter, cycling nutrients, and facilitating the symbiotic relationships between plants and soil organisms. Advanced-Cal promotes microbial activity, enhancing nutrient cycling and making nutrients more available to plants.

These microbial enhancements foster a beneficial microbial community in the soil, which is especially important for crops like corn and beans. For corn, the improved nutrient availability means better growth and more robust development, while beans benefit from enhanced nitrogen fixation, crucial for their growth cycle.

Over time, the increased microbial activity in the soil leads to healthier, more fertile soils that can sustain crop production year after year. This long-term benefit makes Advanced-Cal an excellent investment for farmers looking to improve their soil health and boost crop yields sustainably.

Real-World Testimonials

Farmers across the country have experienced remarkable results using Advanced-Cal on their corn and bean fields. Phillip, a 2023 customer, shared his success story: “I really liked your Advanced-Cal on my corn ground. My test weights went up to 61 pounds. I’m going to use it on my beans this year.” This kind of feedback highlights the significant impact Advanced-Cal can have on corn production, leading to heavier and more productive yields.

Another farmer, Jim from Iowa, tested Advanced-Cal on his bean fields and was amazed by the results. “I applied 2.75 gallons per acre to my bean land and had the best bean stand I’ve ever grown on that field. We got 95 bushels per acre.” Testimonials like these underscore the real-world effectiveness of Advanced-Cal in boosting crop yields and improving overall farm productivity.
