One of the most important things a grower can do is protect their nitrogen investment. Nitrogen accounts for 57% of total fertilizer use, but up to 95% of that is at risk of loss through volatility, denitrification or leaching.

Tim Swanson, product manager at CHS agronomy, recently sat down with NAFB to discuss why nitrogen is so essential to crop growth, how it gets lost to the environment, and how growers can limit nitrogen loss with the full N-Edge portfolio from CHS.
