Here you can find all of the articles from over the years of the Growers Solution.

Maryland greenhouse grower says, “Growers helps me cut out the use on Banrot completely. The micro nutrients mixed in the low salt liquid NPK solution with the very least possible heavy metal toxicity is the name of the game in growing beautiful flowers. Thank you Growers. I am a customer for life.”

The clinical signs of grass tetany and milk fever are often similar, and probably the triggering mechanisms are also similar. Without exception, most researchers have observed that clinical signs of grass tetany rarely occur unless affected animals are high producing and being fed a ration high, or excessive, in protein which includes non-protein nitrogenous compounds.

A comparison of the health of feedlot animals fed a forage diet and feed components raised on the Growers Program, to the health of animals raised on the high energy and high fertility approach of the establishment.

Research on a respected dairy operation in eastern Pennsylvania. They agreed to split their 40 cow milking herd, using the Growers Mineral Solutions (GMS) as a mineral supplement on one half and continuing with their commercial mineral on the other half. The data shows the herd using GMS had much lower manure phosphorus levels, and it was achieved while holding same or higher levels of phosphorus in the blood stream. Includes data taken from the farm's DHIA record sheets during the comparison trial.

Grass tetany affects high producing cattle and other herbivores being fed rations excessive in protein. A common factor is excessive nitrogen fertilization of pastures. Adequate dietary sodium not only protects against nitrate toxicity, but also aids in the prevention of grass tetany, and other metabolic and reproductive disorders in herbivores.

I started with Growers Nutritional Solutions in 1992, and, along with having worked with GNS District Manager Paul Campbell for several years, have come to realize the poor nutrient levels in today's farm products are a big problem.

The Book family of Borden, in southern Indiana, had always applied limestone to their fields, but then Ed Bulcher, their Growers District Manager, came along and convinced them to apply high calcium and more tons per acre. "We always used lime, but not as much as Ed preached. He really made us "limeaholics!" joked Jim.

Scott McIver was our highlighted customer for the January 2011 customer conference call. He tells about using GMS with his registered Polled Hereford and Saler cattle. He also gives some tips on grazing alfalfa and what happens when they have to buy hay.

Aaron and his family began feeding Growers Mineral Solutions to their 100+ cows in 1996. The article explains their setup and was originally published in The Growers Solution Spring 1999. The audio was recorded during the Growers Conference Call February 2011.

Calcium has four basic functions in the soil which help to create better soil structure and healthy plants.

The Kansas and Indiana studies found glyphosate resistant soybeans to be vulnerable to manganese deficiencies while non resistant varieties are not.

As we start another season of foliar feeding it is important to remind you about water quality and its effect on Growers Nutritional Solutions 10-20-10 (GNS 10-20-10). The number one factor to be concerned with is the calcium and magnesium hardness of the water.

This spring we have been receiving many calls on mixing Growers Nutritional Solutions 10-20-10 with Roundup ® Ultra for Roundup Ready ® soybeans. Because this will be the third year some customers will be mixing GNS 10-20-10 with the popular post emergence herbicide we can pass on information learned from experience.

Amos tells us he also uses Growers Nutritional Additive as part of his regular spray protocol, and like many of our other vegetable producers, is seeing increased production and other good things.

Two of our Growers sales representatives have used a fairly new lab test and calculation to determine the quality of feed produced using the theories of the Growers Program. Head to head, with all variables equal except the fertility, one dairy farmer was estimated to be able to produce $233.10 in additional value per acre using the Growers Program.

We want to discuss our contention that the 1.2 Rule, now being questioned by Blackmer but still followed by the agricultural establishment, is too high. (The 1.2 Rule says that you should apply 1.2 pounds of nitrogen for every bushel of corn you wish to grow.)
