Even and accurate application of fertilizer is essential to produce a good quality, uniform crop. It is also important to help ensure that all plants get a fair share and that some areas don’t miss out while others get a double dose. From an environmental view point, it ensures more of the fertilizer is utilised by the plants and less accumulates, unused, to be leached into surface run off, to contaminate ground water or volatilize as greenhouse gasses.
Using quality Stream Bars for application of liquid fertilizers, such as UAN, will ensure that the whole plant stand receives an even and accurate application leading to optimum yields, without the leaf burn normally associated with liquid nitrogen application
