    <title>Focusing on Smarter, Sustainable Fertilizing Strategies</title>
    <description>
      <![CDATA[<p>In agriculture, improved management practices have to make sense in dollars and cents. Sustainable agriculture means stewardship of the land, air and water &mdash; but it also means doing this in a way that is profitable over the long-term.</p><br>

<p>Sustaining and further improving crop yield is the best objective of soil health. Continuous improvement of crop yield is extremely dependent on how we plan to invest and sustain the soil ecosystem to withstand environmental threats and stripping of key nutrients needed to sustain agriculture.</p><br>

      <title>Focusing on Phosphorus</title>
      <description>
        <![CDATA[Clearly, phosphorus (P) is important for growing crops, and is involved in many functions within a plant such as energy storage and transfer (ATP/ADP), protein synthesis, photosynthesis, nucleic acid (DNA/RNA) synthesis, nutrient movement through cell walls and many more processes. Therefore, it pays to make sure P does not become deficient in plants.]]>
