Health Starts From The Ground Up
All of us grow up learning that all life starts from a simple, tiny seed. We watch that seed mature, a miracle of life, and we ask ourselves where does that life come from? The answer: life starts in the soil. Our soil is teeming with life. It is rich, healthy and fertile. Unfortunately, we have a habit of working against that life. We have a habit of taking that life, the nutrients, and not returning them to the soil. We have a habit of working against nature and "the plan". That is unacceptable!
The answer comes down to nutrients and soil life. With every crop, we mine essential life giving nutrients from the soil. For example, a corn crop removes 200 lbs of minerals not including NPK from your soil every year. These nutrients are essential to crop development both in quality and quantity. In exchange for these lost nutrients, we find ourselves pouring on more and more fertilizers to make up for the loss. Many times, these fertilizers are hazardous to the life in the soil, not to mention our own health! Yes our yields may go up, but are we helping ourselves in the long-run? Absolutely not! Lets put a stop to that cycle, and start a program that builds life and nutrients in your soil, your crop and your life.
Start a program that begins with a simple four letter word: LIFE.

Grains & Feed
When looking at grains and feed, there are two major characteristics
to look at - quality and weight. Weight builds your yields, and a
grain grown using Planters II Minerals will be heavier.
Feed quality is important from the roots to the tops increasing
proteins, survivability and nutrient levels.

Its About Stewardship
We are given one job in our lifetimes - to make this world a better
place for our children. Every time we farm, we remove nutrients and
minerals from the soil. Planters II is the way to replace those
minerals while still keeping yields and profits high. Planters II
fertilizer - give to the land, multiply profits, and increase quality.

program of stewardship and sustainability.
