Hay and pasture

Start with what you spread now. Build around how the field is used.

Hay is planned around cutting and recovery. Pasture is planned around grazing, rest, and a stand recheck. Give the builder the field context it needs.

Field context

Hay and pasture move on different clocks

The same field inputs lead to different planning checkpoints when acres are cut or grazed.

Hay

Cutting rhythm
  1. Cut
  2. Check recovery
  3. Plan the next window

Pasture

Grazing rhythm
  1. Graze
  2. Rest
  3. Recheck the stand
Hay planning follows cutting, recovery observation, and the next field window. Pasture planning follows grazing, rest, and a stand recheck. The visual does not represent a specific farm or a measured outcome.

We carry these numbers into the builder and finish the side-by-side against your acres. The rates and prices start at common planning numbers; put in what you actually pay.

The program graduates by pass count, not rate

The rate stays the same across tiers. What graduates is how many pushes you run behind the cuttings.

The honest math

This does not replace your base N. NitroMaxx Plus is an efficiency layer over the nitrogen you source. When we add pushes, we cut the dry rate instead of stacking. AgriTec does not sell UAN or ATS.

Hold the push if growth is gone. If drought has shut the stand down, the push will not convert. Wait for the next growth window. Inputs on a stalled stand are wasted money.

Calcium is a 3 to 5 year tool. A Pro-Cal or Advanced-Cal reset lasts 3 to 5 years, so we annualize that cost when we show ROI. We do not load it into a single-year break-even to make a number look bad.

Trial it on one field

Do not take my word for it. Run a strip against an untreated check and let the tonnage settle it. A free soil kit ships with your first order so the next year is built on your ground, not a guess.
