- Benefits
Reduces autumn workload and potentially fertilizer application costs. Nutrients are provided inseason when the crop uses them most efficiently giving better yields and crop quality.; A readily available form of Sulfur for rapid uptake – elemental Sulfur cannot be taken up directly by crops because plants only take up Sulfur in the Sulfate form.; AN is the most efficient Nitrogen source and the 'Best Option for the Environment and Farming' according to Government research.; Crop roots will only take up Phosphorus from soil solution so providing Phosphate in a form that is over 97% water soluble ensures rapid and efficient uptake, supporting root development and plant growth.; Even application of all nutrients across the whole spreader bout width, which optimizes nutrient use efficiency and crop response.; Reliable product with consistent high quality every year.

- Sulfur Facts
Sulfur is very mobile in the soil and can leach through the soil profile. Where large amounts are required it is advisable to split the recommended requirement in two or more applications.; Foliar applied Sulfur is a less efficient approach to correcting Sulfur deficiency. This is because only 2% of the Sulfur is intercepted and absorbed through the leaf and often these products don't contain enough Sulfur.; The average UK deposition of Sulfur is now negligible compared with the 25kg SO3 /ha/year of 20 years ago. In fact Sulfur deposition is no longer measured, due to such low levels occurring.; Organic manures contain Sulfur, but in variable quantity and availability. Like elemental Sulfur, most of the Sulfur in organic manures cannot be directly taken up by crops for growth.

CF Fertilizers products spread to 32m bout widths. Widths of 36m are achievable with certain spreaders and products in suitable conditions, however, please seek advice. It is important to maintain fertilizer spreaders, whatever bout width you work at.
