Phosphorus at the start of vegetation: why it matters for autumn
As germination begins and the first roots emerge, the crop enters a stage in which access to soil nutrients becomes essential for successful establishment. Phosphorus plays an important role during this period, as it is involved in processes that support early growth and root-system development. In practice, however, the mere presence of phosphorus in the soil—or the application of a phosphorus fertiliser—does not automatically mean that plants can use the entire amount. Soil pH, soil characteristics, moisture, temperature and root development all influence a crop’s access to this nutrient. That is why, when fertilising autumn [...]
Autumn fertilization: how to choose the right strategy based on soil, crop and yield target
Autumn fertilization starts with understanding the field The same fertilization program cannot be applied automatically to every field. Even within the same farm, differences in soil characteristics, pH, previous crops, fertilization history or moisture conditions can affect nutrient availability and the way crops are able to use those nutrients. This is why autumn fertilization planning should start with three key factors: the soil, the crop to be established and a realistic yield target. The amount of nutrients applied is only one part of the decision. Equally important is what happens to those nutrients after application: [...]
Fertilization under drought and heat stress: how to help crops through challenging conditions
Summer no longer means just high temperatures. It also means increased stress for crops. Prolonged periods without rainfall, temperatures above 35°C, and significant day-to-night temperature fluctuations are increasingly affecting crops in Romania. Under these conditions, plants slow their growth, have greater difficulty absorbing water and nutrients, and experience reduced physiological activity. The effects can become visible in the field through: slower vegetative growth; reduced root activity; smaller fruits; yield and quality losses. In such situations, conventional fertilization alone may not always be enough. Crops can also benefit from products that support the plant’s natural defense [...]
Top 5 fertilizer selection mistakes and how to avoid them
Effective fertilization starts before the fertilizer is applied Choosing the right fertilizer is one of the most important decisions in crop nutrition. However, successful fertilization depends not only on the product itself but also on how it is integrated into the overall crop management strategy. Soil analysis, application timing, crop nutrient requirements, and weather conditions all influence how efficiently nutrients are utilized by plants. Here are five of the most common mistakes that can reduce fertilizer efficiency—and how to avoid them. Choosing a fertilizer without a soil analysis One of the most common mistakes is [...]
More efficient fertilization with NUTRI-TOP: protected nutrients for high-yielding crops
Efficient crop fertilization: the role of protected nutrients in agricultural performance A high-performing crop starts with balanced nutrition and with plants having access to essential nutrients exactly when they need them. In agriculture, it is not enough for nutrients to simply be present in the soil. They must also be available, protected, and efficiently utilized by plants, depending on the crop, growth stage, and soil and climatic conditions. In this context, modern fertilization technologies focus not only on supplying nutrients, but also on increasing nutrient use efficiency. The NUTRI-TOP range has been developed to protect [...]

Gas and Chemical Fertilizers | Global Reporter
“The global demand for chemical fertilizers is increasing, because the demand for food is also constantly growing and the soils have lost their nutritious qualities. As such, to produce larger quantities of food, more and more fertilizers will be needed. Romania is in a privileged positioning for the time be, thanks to its good quality soil, so the local demand for fertilizers is somewhat lower. However, this advantage is expected to gradually disappear”, declared Marcello Lambrughi, sales manager at CICh, to Reporter Global, a publication that is the exclusive partner of The Economist magazine [...]

RAPESEED CULTIVATION TECHNOLOGY
Rapeseed should preferably be grown on one and the same field at time intervals of at least three years. The field to be cultivated with rapeseed should be cleared by the end of July. Good precursor crops are peas, beans, wheat and barley (early varieties). Rapeseed is an excellent precursor crop thanks to its capacity to release a large amount of nutrients into a rich vegetable mass that decomposes easily in the arable soil layer. RISKS TO AVOID: Due to the fact that pulses and sunflower get easily infected with Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, their use [...]
WHEAT CULTIVATION TECHNOLOGY
Crop Rotation: the plants that are highly recommended to grow before wheat cultivation are pulses and rapeseed; rapeseed is as efficient as pulses when used as a pre-culture on wheat fields) the plants that are recommended to grow before wheat cultivation, provided they are harvested by 10-15 September, are soybean, sugar beet and sunflower; it is advisable not to grow wheat on a former corner field, if the corn was infested with Fusarium) it is not recommended to grow wheat after late-harvest crops that deplete the soil of water and nutrients, such as barley, [...]
