The value of integrating Levesol®

How Levesol enhances starter performance 
Mar 18, 2026

Growers are making final adjustments to their planting plans and starter fertilizer decisions are often at the top of the list. Starters remain one of the most reliable ways to kickstart early growth, especially in cool, wet or high-residue conditions. 

But even the best starter fertilizer can benefit from an efficiency boost. 

Unlock more from every pass of starter fertilizer 

When phosphorus becomes tied up in the soil, early-season nutrient efficiency drops, limiting the benefit of an otherwise solid fertility plan. Integrating Levesol® chelate into your starter program helps keep nutrients available longer, allowing seedlings to access nutrition when root systems are just beginning to establish. 

What Levesol products bring to the table

  • Improved nutrient availability and uptake during the coolsoil phase 
  • Increased flexibility when conditions delay planting or warm-up 
  • Stronger, more uniform emergence, ensuring plants get off to a strong start 
  • Better early root development, helping crops push through stress

Levesol works seamlessly with common infurrow and starter blends, making integration easy for growers and retailers. 

Why now? Timing matters. 

Starter decisions lock in quickly as planters get ready to roll. Ensuring that Levesol is part of those earlyseason programs positions growers to get more value from the fertilizer they’re already applying and supports a more consistent start across variable conditions. 

Talk with your CHS agronomist or agronomy sales representative for support integrating Levesol products into your 2026 starter recommendations.
