Lesson 7: Government Incentives & Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer (EEF)

Nitrogen is a necessary nutrient for crops. But sometimes, when nutrient best-management practices are not used, some of the N can be lost to air and water. Nutrien promotes what is known as 4R nutrient stewardship: that is, use the Right fertilizer source at the Right rate, at the Right time and in the Right place.

In this lesson, we will explain the two main incentive programs for using Enhanced Efficiency Fertilizer such as ESN, and give a brief overview of a few others.

This lesson includes one video and is approved for CEU credits. To earn credits, watch the videos entirely, then complete the quiz.

Note: At the start of the quiz, fill out the section with your full name and CCA member number to ensure proper tracking. We will then submit the completed information on your behalf at the end of each month.
