ENVIRONMENTAL
BENEFITS
The environmental benefits of using ammonia extract products include:
​
-
Enabling nutrients to be captured from readily available natural sources, such as manures.
-
Fostering innovation makes manures more efficient and prevents the overapplication of nutrients, like phosphorus, in local areas where manures are prevalent.
-
Minimizing the potential for nutrient runoff as nutrients are captured from fresh manure rather than being stored outdoors, which can promote leaching and volatilization as greenhouse gasses.
-
Providing separate dry and liquid fertilizer products that can be precisely targeted and applied to the need of each unique crop.
-
Using domestically sourced natural fertilizer has a significantly lower carbon footprint than importing fertilizer products from overseas or using non-sustainable feedstocks.
-
Supporting the use of innovative Climate Smart Technologies that produce ammonia extracts in a natural way.
