Using Pivot Bio or Sound Ag: How Does NutriCharge Fit into a Program if You're Utilizing These Solutions?
Many growers are incorporating biological nitrogen products like Pivot Bio and Sound Ag into their programs. A common question: how does NutriCharge fit with these technologies?
Understanding the Technologies
Pivot Bio / Sound Ag These products use microbes that colonize plant roots and fix atmospheric nitrogen, reducing the need for synthetic N fertilizer.
NutriCharge NutriCharge focuses on phosphorus efficiency—keeping applied P plant-available longer by preventing soil fixation.
Complementary, Not Competitive
These technologies work on different nutrients and through different mechanisms. They're designed to complement each other:
- Biological N handles nitrogen availability
- NutriCharge handles phosphorus availability
- Together they create a more balanced nutrient program
Program Considerations
When using both technologies:
- Apply NutriCharge with your phosphorus fertilizer as normal
- Follow application guidelines for biological N products
- Monitor tissue tests to verify uptake of both nutrients
The Bottom Line
NutriCharge and biological nitrogen products can absolutely work together. Both are about efficiency—getting more from your nutrient inputs.
