Fertilizer supply chains have been anything but stable this year. For many growers, that makes on-farm storage not just a convenience, but a strategic advantage. But storing fertilizer isn't as simple as putting it in a bin and forgetting about it. So how do you preserve its quality over time, especially in humid conditions?   Find out on this episode of The Dirt with your host, Mike Howell, and Nutrien Senior Agronomist, Lyle Cowell. Join them as they explore the real-world challenges and benefits of fertilizer storage, from managing product blends and minimizing moisture risks to equipment and application considerations.   You'll learn how and why fertilizers clump, the two primary ways they absorb moisture, how to prevent moisture absorption and what simple steps can make a big difference in fertilizer storability, flowability and safety, particularly in Western Canada.   Looking for the latest in crop nutrition research?

Nitrogen loss is the topic today on the Advancing Nitrogen Smart podcast. Soil conditions and chemistry are factors that make nitrogen prone to loss, but how does the N loss process actually happen? What's left over in the field after that process occurs? What do denitrification, leaching and volatilization mean? How can the 4 Rs (right rate, right source, right placement, right timing) help growers minimize risk? How do nitrification inhibitors, microbes, and soil types fit in to the picture? All that and more in today's conversation.Guests:Brad Carlson, Extension educator (Mankato)Dan Kaiser, Extension nutrient management specialist (St. Paul)Additional resources:Wait, consider your options before applying nitrogen this fallVideo: What to know about nitrogen inhibitors and other enhanced efficiency fertilizersField Notes talks about what to expect after heavy June rainsVideo: Fall vs. spring urea in MinnesotaNitrogen Smart---For the latest nutrient management information, subscribe to the Nutrient Management Podcast.

Fertilizer is a major input cost of grain production, and increasing or volatile pricing puts pressure on farm margins and raises questions about long-term supply chain control. For Canadian farmers, one grassroots option is taking shape in Saskatchewan: Genesis Fertilizers, a proposed farmer-owned nitrogen fertilizer plant. But turning that vision into a reality requires capital,... Read More

In this episode, host Eklavya Gupte sits down with Matt Hoisch, senior price reporter at Platts, to explore how the energy-intensive fertilizer industry is navigating extraordinary turbulence, from supply chain shocks to spiralling energy costs, while potentially becoming an enabler of the energy transition itself. They look at ammonia's pivotal role as both a key ingredient in nitrogen fertilizer production and a potential game-changer for clean energy storage and transport. Hoisch also discusses how the emerging low-carbon ammonia market could nearly double demand for ammonia by 2050, positioning itself as a viable next-generation fuel.

In Part 2 of our series with Dr. Bhupinder Farmaha, we go deeper—literally. Dr. Farmaha joins us again to talk about what's happening below the topsoil and why it matters more than ever in nutrient decision-making. From soil testing at deeper depths to assessing the biological activity of soil microbes, Bhupinder's research is showing that one-size-fits-all recommendations just don't cut it anymore.He shares a bold finding: only 50% of cotton production sites in his trials respond to nitrogen application. That insight could shake up fertilizer recommendations in a big way. Bhupinder also dives into chicken litter studies, the promise and risks of micronutrient buildup, and the long-term effects of organic amendments on sandy South Carolina soils.Highlights include:Working with USDA partners to integrate biological indicators into soil testsChicken litter vs. synthetic fertilizer: trade-offs and recommendationsHow climate-smart practices can stabilize yields in unpredictable weatherRethinking seed selection in light of resilient management systemsThe episode ends with a look at where this work is headed—toward more holistic, systems-based nutrient management. Bhupinder makes a strong case for moving beyond chemistry alone and embracing biology and farmer experience as critical parts of the fertility equation.Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeCotton, Country Conservation: An 8-Year Case Study in Regenerative Agriculture (Following SC Farmer Sonny Price's path of reducing input costs, increasing organic matter, and saving over $2.5 million):  soilhealthlabs.com/projects/cotton-country-conservation

As Clemson Extension's Soil Fertility Specialist, Bhupinder walks us through his journey from studying soil science at the University of Illinois to on-farm research in Minnesota and across South Carolina—where he's working side-by-side with farmers to reevaluate how much (and what kind of) fertilizer is really necessary.We explore the difficulty of challenging generational practices and the importance of building trust through local, participatory research. Bhupinder shares stories of farmers like Sonny Price, who haven't applied potash for nearly a decade—without any loss in yield—and how that's pushing the envelope on conventional wisdom.Topics covered include:Why scaling back fertilizer use is as much cultural as it is agronomicThe importance of working on real farms, not just research stationsBuilding peer-to-peer farmer networks for changeHow soil health practices like cover crops impact profitability, pH, and nutrient cyclingLearning from farmer-led experiments and shifting extension modelsThis episode lays the groundwork for a broader conversation about nutrient efficiency, soil health, and what it takes to bring about real-world change in agricultural systems. Whether you're conventional, curious, or fully regenerative, there's something here for everyone interested in growing smarter.Resources Mentioned in This EpisodeCotton, Country Conservation: An 8-Year Case Study in Regenerative Agriculture (Following SC Farmer Sonny Price's path of reducing input costs, increasing organic matter, and saving over $2.5 million): soilhealthlabs.com/projects/cotton-country-conservation

He was destined to be a horticulturist. He started working in a nursery as a teenager and studied marine biology and climatology in college. Then returned to horticulture to study ace genetics, plant breeding, weed science and soil fertility. With so many new organic fertilizers on the market he trialed as many as possible to give honest feedback to his customers. This led him to spend several years mixing different ingredients by hand in a five gallon buckets to give samples to his clients to test. Magically the local garden groups named it Tony's Magic Mix.Tony's Book - Old Man In the Sea, by Ernest HemingwayVisit UrbanFarm.org/EarthOriginalOrganics for the show notes and links on this episode!
