Benefits of Micronoc

• Soil which maintains a better nutritional balance
• Better mineral utilization
• Better quality and higher crop yields
• More consistent crop yields
• Quicker and more consistent seed germination
• Stronger, healthier plants that are better able to withstand stress (drought, insects, parasites, etc.)
• Easier and less costly to fine-tune fertility program in mid-season
• Soil which is more forgiving and tolerant to adverse management
• Improved ability of the soil to remove toxins
• Soil which will more readily overcome diseases
• Soil with ability to recover from adverse conditions more quickly
• Ability to free up complex minerals and facilitate leaching of excess elements
• Ability to buffer highly dissolved solids in irrigation water
• Less commercial fertilizer input required to produce expected yields
• Less nutrient tie-up of soil attributes by application of excess fertilizers
• More net dollars!

Micronoc, the banner product of Sono Ag was developed in 1975, and is a mixture of Microorganisms selected for their ability to decompose organic matter and fix atmospheric nitrogen for crops such as cotton, wheat, milo, corn, vegetables, etc. Approximately 80% of the atmosphere is composed of nitrogen. Much scientific literature is available on various microorganisms and their abilities to fix free (N2) nitrogen. This reservoir of plant food is mostly non-available but through fixation by microorganisms in the soil, some of this free nitrogen becomes available for plant growth and development in the form of ammonia (NH3), Nitrite (NO2) and nitrate (NO3). An increase in the number of these nitrogen-fixing organisms in the plant root zone will stimulate fixation of free nitrogen from the air. Nitrogen fixing microorganisms in combination with other specific organisms contained in Micronoc is most efficient in converting atmospheric nitrogen to the forms utilized by plants. Microbes are also important in the decomposition of organic materials by digesting cellulose and lignin resulting in the subsequent release of nutrient elements. In the course of feeding, microbes attack and digest the complex.

This can be directly added to all your seeds for a greater boost in seed germination. Alternately, can be applied as a foliar spray when the crop is 6 to 14 inches in height for optimal health and growth.
