Enhanced Efficiency Phosphorus Fertilizers

New formulations of fertilizers and related products offer the promise of greater nutrient use efficiency, better crop production, and lower environmental impacts. To incent development of these products, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and Department of Agriculture (USDA) have collaborated with various nongovernmental organizations to run the Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer and the Next Gen Fertilizer Challenges, with an emphasis on U.S. corn production.
In this webinar, we heard about new phosphate fertilizer technologies from three companies who have participated in the challenge and developed fertilizers aimed at providing nutrition to crops while minimizing the environmental impact of fertilization: Verdesian Life Sciences, Timac Agro, and The Andersons.
