Stout Launches Stout Smart Rate Fertilizer: The Future of Precision Fertilization
This cutting-edge technology introduces a smarter, more efficient approach to crop fertilization, focusing on precision, cost effectiveness and sustainability.
Salinas, CA. (November 6th, 2024) - Stout, a pioneer in plant-level innovation, is proud to announce the launch of the Stout Smart Rate Fertilizer, a revolutionary solution set to transform the way commercial farmers approach fertilization. This cutting-edge technology introduces a smarter, more efficient approach to crop fertilization, focusing on precision, cost effectiveness and sustainability.
What sets the Stout Smart Rate Fertilizer apart is its ability to deliver tailored nutrient application to the needs of individual plants - a concept Stout calls "Farming to the Individual Plant." This technology empowers farmers to optimize fertilization practices, ensuring up to 30% reduction in material use while driving uniformity across every field. By applying nutrients only where and when they are needed, the Stout Smart Rate Fertilizer helps farmers minimize material use, contributing to more sustainable and cost-effective farming practices.
"Our goal with the Stout Smart Rate Fertilizer is to provide a tool that not only enhances the efficiency of farming operations but also supports long-term sustainability," said Ryan Mazzuca, Director of Business Development. "Materials like Fertilizer make up more than 50% of the overall cultural costs in agricultural production, and we plan to reduce that burden, while increasing yield, a win-win for all."
The Stout Smart Rate Fertilizer is now an available implement that can be added to the company's Smart Cultivator. To get more information, visit stout.ai.
