What do the 4Rs really mean?
Nutrient stewardship means applying the right source at the right rate, at the right time, and in the right place. What’s “right” depends on your site-specific soils, climate, plant production system, and goals for improved sustainability. Reporting your progress to the people your enterprise impacts gives you social license to operate and raises public awareness of the benefits you bring forward through the use of plant nutrients. Learn more about implementing the 4Rs with the new 4R Plant Nutrition Manual, and see what it means for phosphorus management in the watersheds of Lake Erie in these recent Ohio presentations.
