Rainbow Plant Food and the 4Rs
We are driven by the conviction that fertilizer will play a critical role in meeting increased global demand for food in the future, and that fertilizer must be used safely, effectively and efficiently. Rainbow Plant Food was developed with the 4Rs of Nutrient Stewardship in mind – use the right nutrient source, at the right rate, at the right time, and in the right place. Rainbow can be an integral part of many grower’s best management practices and implementation of the 4Rs.
The Right Source
For over 100 years, Rainbow fertilizers have proven to be the right fertilizer for a wide variety of crops. Crops and soils have their own unique nutritional needs, and Rainbow fertilizers are formulated to satisfy them. Not only does Rainbow Plant Food include adequate amounts of all essential nutrients, it provides them in the most efficient form for use by the crop.
The Right Rate
Rainbow Plant Food formulations are tailor-made, based on thousands of soil samples taken from area farms. No blending is necessary since a perfect ratio of essential minerals is contained within each granule. No blending means no chance for segregation, which in turn means healthier, more vibrant crops at every harvest.
The Right Time
Nutrients in Rainbow fertilizers exist in a highly available water-soluble sulfate form, so they can move quickly through the soil profile to reach roots in time to promote healthy, hearty crops. With Rainbow, there is no segregation, so when the roots are growing into the soil, they can find all the nutrients they need once they hit a granule. Whether you broadcast or apply it in-row, every plant across the field will have the necessary nutrients available when it’s needed most.
The Right Place
Not only does Rainbow Plant Food include adequate amounts of all essential nutrients, it provides them in the most efficient form for use by the crop. Granules are uniform in size, shape and weight, so the fertilizer spreads evenly. Every plant across the field receives the necessary nutrients regardless of application method.
Consider Rainbow Plant Food as a key part of your best management practices to produce high yields and high-quality crops.
