Fertigation pumps help producers better manage fertilizer investment.   It's quite the dilemma - production costs keep rising and crops continue to be undervalued.  Profitability in agriculture requires optimum management at every stage of production - and that includes your fertilizer program.   Fertigation systems from Agri-Inject allow you to greatly improve the efficiency and effectiveness of your fertilizer applications - applying the right amount at the right time for less waste and greater yield potential.   The Benefits of Fertigation   There are dozens of good reasons to apply fertilizer through your pivot with an Agri-Inject fertigation system.  Here are a few:   The supply of nutrients can be more carefully regulated and monitored. You can easily use numerous, small dose applications ("spoon feeding") to meet the actual nutritional requirements of your crop - optimizing your fertilizer applications. In making these split applications, you don't have to travel over the field - reducing labor, energy costs, soil compaction and crop damage. The proper amount of water can thoroughly incorporate the fertilizer to the desired depth - and provide moisture for activation. Fertigation allows for application with any tillage situation and is compatible with reduced till or no-till practices. Fertigation puts the fertilizer where the water goes - which is exactly where you want it to go. Fertigation is less costly than other forms of application.   It's clear that an Agri-Inject fertigation system can help you save money and improve your prospects for profitability.   The Importance of Good Equipment   The quality of your fertilizer pump can make or break your bottom line.   Accuracy is a critical factor.  A pump with ± 1% accuracy compared with one of ± 5% can save about $150 per season on one 125-acre circle of corn through prevention of over-application of fertilizer.  On the other hand, under-application of fertilizer can result in significant yield loss.  In other words, the money saved by purchasing a fertilizer pump with less accuracy is lost many times over once that pump is in your field.   The mRoy pumps on Agri-Inject fertigation systems operate at a ± 1% steady state accuracy - assuring consistency from application to application.   Durability is also a consideration.  The mRoy pumps on Agri-Inject fertigation systems come with a three-year warranty - and with proper maintenance, can easily last more than a decade.   Agri-Inject fertigation systems have other important features which make them the leader in the industry:   The filter assembly is installed directly on the pump with a clear bowl to make it easy to inspect. Each unit comes complete with a sturdy base to keep the unit out of the mud.  The base also has handles for easy lifting. Control switch for easy on/off control and a resettable breaker for overload protection. Of course, every unit comes with the patented Mister Mist'r™ injection check valve available only from Agri-Inject.   As you plan your fertility program this year, talk with your Agri-Inject dealer about putting fertigation to work for you.  It's one investment that is bound to pay dividends at harvest time.
