Growing Consistently Year-After-Year With ESN

In the ever-shifting landscape of agriculture, Daniel Sell (or as you may know him, Farmer Dan) plans for consistency each year. With roots that are five-generations deep in the Texas panhandle, Daniel and his father grow wheat and sorghum. Through unpredictable weather and unexpected conditions, the Sell operation has found dependability with ESN to boost yields since first applying six years ago.

“We find ESN has helped the health of our soil as well as the plants. We also see carry-over into the next crop so that we don’t need to fertilize every year on each pass.”

By cultivating a fertility program based on good science – and regular soil samples, Daniel works alongside a team to maintain a steady nitrogen level every growing season. ESN plays an essential role in delivering nitrogen to your crops in continually changing growing conditions. Alan Gerber, Nutrien Agricultural Specialties Marketing Representative, explains that “ESN allows water to move in and nitrogen to move out over the course of time that is controlled by temperature.”

As a farming operation without irrigation, ESN has become a vital element in supporting Sell’s growth strategy and striking balance in soil moisture and nitrogen levels, from first application in February all the way through the growing season.

“Honestly, we would be losing a lot without that ESN [granule],” Daniel shares. “I think ESN will always be part of my operation and how I fertilize my soil.”
