Prevent Soil Tie-Up

Boost nutrient availability for growing crops, all season.

CG P2X Fertilizers Release Nutrients According to Crop Demand to Prevent Soil Tie-Up 

Crops seldom take up more than 20% of conventional phosphate during the season it was applied. The remaining phosphate becomes tied-up and unavailable to growing crops. CG P2X solves the issue of soil tie-up, by only releasing nutrients as crops demand them. 


Nutrients on Demand

Provide crops with the nutrients they need, when they need them, all season. CG P2X releases nutrients only in response to organic acids exuded from growing roots, unlike conventional phosphate fertilizers which often end up unavailable due to soil fixation.

Efficient nutrient uptake

Minimize Loss to Maximize Uptake

CG P2X prevents phosphorus from solubilizing into the soil where it can react with iron, aluminum or calcium and become tied-up and unavailable to crops. This can result in soils with high levels of phosphate while crops show signs of phosphate deficiency.


Study Results: CG P2X Maintains Phosphate Availability All Season

CG P2X fertilizers are sparingly water soluble and only release phosphorus in response to organic acids exuded by roots, ensuring phosphorus remains available throughout critical crop development stages.

Study Results: CG P2X Prevents Phosphorus from Leaching into Soil

A study of cumulative orthophosphate in leachate as affected by phosphate sources show CG P2X is considerably less prone to leaching when compared to watersoluble phosphate sources.

Research Proven

Dr. Fred Below, professor at the University of Illinois, discusses his research showing how CG P2X uses phosphate more efficiently to help increase yield.

CG P2X Fertilizers

CG P2X’s fertilizers only release nutrients in response to crop demand, so phosphorus doesn’t release into the soil profile, tie-up and become unavailable to crops.
