Market conditions and grain prices are setting up 2025 to be a year of tough decisions for farmers. Growers do not want to cut back on inputs at the risk of harming yields but when faced with tough economic decisions, tough management decisions need to be made.

In the case of farmers who have no choice but to cut fertilizer rates, The Mosaic Company offers biological nutrient enhancers to facilitate efficient nutrient uptake and utilization. These biological products are designed to help growers get the most out of their fertilizer investment.

Scott Rabe is the director of research and development for Mosaic Biosciences, and he says that Mosaic wants to assist farmers by helping them get the most from their inputs.

Rabe says that Mosaic offers the data and research that backs up the efficacy of their biological products.

While cutting back on inputs might make economic sense on paper, in practice that can have a negative effect for yields says Rabe.

In addition to helping with nutrient uptake efficiency Rabe says that biological nutrient enhancers from Mosaic assist growers by boosting plant health for early season plant growth.

He says biologicals from Mosaic contain specific strains of bacteria which increase nutrient availability, help with uptake, and assist the plant in utilizing nutrients.
