- Product Highlights
- Mined in North America. Naturally occurring sedimentary soft rock phosphate. Approved for use in organic production systems. Available in powder, granular, fine mesh and blended with other products.
- Provides more vigorous crop with better protection against pests, improves soil health, promotes carbon sequestration, reduces losses to leaching an run-off, seed safe, field tested.
- Phosphorus is a Critical Soil Nutrient
Stimulates early season growth, promotes seed production, grows deeper and stronger roots, ensures competitive crops, reduces pest and disease pressure, hastens maturity, drives yield
- Guaranteed Nutrition
- High Phosphate Analysis with >7% available P, extended seasonal and multi-year availability building the soil P reserve
- Calcium and Silica improve plant defense mechanisms against pests and diseases
- Free of Soil Damaging Salts found in commercially produced fertilizers
- Better soil tilth and soil health through enhanced soil microbial populations
- Reduced losses due to low groundwater leaching and run-off characteristics promoting a healthier environment
- Competitively priced and a suitable alternative to conventional fertilizer
- Farmers see Soil Health Benefits in Combining Mono-Ammonium Phosphate (MAP) with Fertoz-Phos Granulated Sedimentary Rock Phosphate
Replace 20% (or more) of your phosphate needs with Fertoz-Phos. Start by blending 80:20 (MAP : Fertoz-Phos) to improve soil and crop phosphorus requirements and reduce reliance on traditional MAP fertilizer.
Fertoz-Phos Benefits and Soil Building
- Decreased leaching, runoff and contamination of adjacent aquifers and waterways
- Reduces the rate of acidification and soil salinization
- Builds the soil phosphorus reserve over time
- Improves soil health and structure
- Builds the soil micro biome, micro biota then contribute to enhanced P solubility, availability and use
Beneficial Nutrients
Fertoz-Phos adds other beneficial nutrients to the soil such as calcium and silica, which are important in building soil structure, enhancing nutrient balance, and regulating pH and CEC. These important nutrients improve resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses such as drought, salinity, carbon sequestration, pathogens and pests, lodging, extreme weather and nutritional deficiencies. Fertoz-Phos enhances crop germination, growth and structure.
Planning Ahead – Long Term Effectiveness
Sedimentary soft rock phosphate is a naturally formed source of phosphorus with over 20% total phosphate. Fertoz-Phos provides a slow release window, equipped with a season long release of P and builds the soil available phosphorus reserve over time. Re-application of phosphate fertilizer in season is not necessary with Fertoz-Phos.

Emergence
14% germination increase from Rock Phosphate over 27 fields seeded to oats, wheat, peas, durum, lentils and flax.
Early Growth
Soil Tested
Yield
A 35.8% average yield increase from rock phosphate was calculated from 95 treatment comparisons.
- + 15.39 % yield in oats
- + 29.19 – 60.82 % yield in legumes over 29 comparisons
- + 19.14% yield in corn
- Canola is efficient at utilizing PR in alkaline soil
- + 5.14 – 14.32 % yield in wheat over 6 comparisons
Harvest
5 bu /ac yield increase (25%) in wheat from fall applied Rock Phosphate. With organic wheat prices at $18 per bushel, this producer can expect a return of $90 per acre.
