Wheat Needs 10-20-10+ & 3-18-18+
If you’re looking to boost wheat performance this fall, AgriTec’s 3-18-18+ and 10-20-10+ orthophosphate liquid fertilizers offer the speed and efficiency your crop needs. Unlike dry fertilizers that take weeks to break down, these advanced blends deliver nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in their most immediately available form. Feeding your wheat early with 3-18-18+ or 10-20-10+ helps ensure quick emergence, stronger roots, and higher yields.
What 10-20-10+ Does for Wheat
AgriTec’s 10-20-10+ fertilizer is formulated to feed wheat rapidly and safely at the most critical time of development. It provides a balanced supply of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, alongside essential trace minerals like zinc, sulfur, and magnesium. This combination is designed to spark strong germination, fast emergence, and vigorous early growth.
Because it uses orthophosphate technology, 10-20-10+ offers immediate nutrient availability. This is especially important in no-till or minimum-till systems. In those systems, fertilizers need to work through heavy residue and cooler soil temperatures. It’s also seed-safe, so it can be applied right over the seed using a no-till drill without burn risk. The slow-release nature of the nitrogen ensures your crop stays fed without the risk of tissue damage.
Growers using 10-20-10+ consistently report quicker emergence, larger root systems, higher Brix levels, and crops that are noticeably more tolerant to environmental stress. It’s not just about getting your wheat up, it’s about setting it up for long-term success.
What 3-18-18+ Does for Wheat
Many farmers don’t realize just how expensive, and inefficient, traditional dry fertilizer programs can be. Between DAP and potash, you might be spending $94 an acre or more, only to see nutrients sit in the soil unused for weeks. AgriTec’s 3-18-18+ not only works faster, it does so at roughly half the cost, saving you up to $47 per acre.
3-18-18+ is designed with a high concentration of phosphorus and potassium, and just enough nitrogen to act as a carrier. It fuels early-season root growth and strengthens stalks for better standability. These nutrients are crucial for helping your wheat develop deeper, more resilient roots and stronger plant structures that can withstand wind and temperature swings.
In field trials and grower reports, 3-18-18+ has outperformed dry fertilizers dramatically, producing up to 15 more bushels per acre compared to untreated controls. And since it’s a liquid orthophosphate, it doesn’t sit around waiting to break down. It starts working as soon as it’s applied, whether as an in-furrow starter, a pre-plant treatment, or a foliar application during tillering.
Farmers Are Seeing the Difference
Across the Midwest and Great Plains, farmers using AgriTec’s 10-20-10+ and 3-18-18+ are noticing thicker wheat stands, greener fields, and a measurable difference in performance going into winter. Those who have made the switch are seeing not only healthier crops, but also improved ROI, thanks to both increased yields and reduced fertilizer costs.
For many, it’s as simple as replacing a high-cost, underperforming DAP and potash blend with a more efficient, targeted orthophosphate application. The results speak for themselves in both field health and harvest totals.
Smarter Fertility Starts Now
If you’re serious about boosting wheat performance this season, now is the time to act. Applying 10-20-10+ or 3-18-18+ will help your wheat get established quickly, build stronger root systems, and prepare for the stresses of winter. Unlike dry fertilizers, these liquid solutions won’t sit in your soil waiting for ideal conditions, they’re absorbed immediately, delivering value from day one.
Don’t leave any yield on the table this fall. Whether you’re using a no-till drill, side-dressing, or looking for a foliar top-up, these products fit easily into any wheat fertility program. Stop wasting money on outdated fertilizers that take too long to work. Make the switch to AgriTec’s 10-20-10+ or 3-18-18+ and give your wheat what it needs right now, not next spring.
