Water quality, irrigation system, soil health, and more are all critical factors. But it turns out, elemental sulfur has a powerful role to play in fully turning on the taps to profitability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a><\/a>A wealth of information and insights on this topic were featured in Keg River\u2019s recent webinar on Elevating Soil Health Through Irrigation Best Practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a><\/a>This webinar was sponsored by Keg River and AGvisorPRO, with CEO Robert Saik stepping in as our moderator. The webinar featured Terry Tindall, a Senior Agronomist at J.R. Simplot Company,&nbsp; Dr. Charlie Sanchez, a Research Specialist and Professor at the University of Arizona, and Brooke Bateman, a sales and product leader with Keg River.<a><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These experts discussed everything from the evolution of irrigation approaches and water quality challenges across different regions to soil pH and structure, nutrient availability, and how to truly elevate results through optimal utilization of elemental sulfur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Top tips from the experts<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Rob Saik noted that irrigation has been a game changer for agriculture \u2013 allowing farmers to grow productive crops in places where it would not be otherwise possible. But are these crops hitting their full yield potential? Here are a few examples of the practical advice and insights the experts had to help ensure healthy, high-yielding crops:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Optimize irrigation to maintain soil balance: <\/strong>Dr. Charlie Sanchez provided an overview of irrigation approaches and challenges, covering the main systems and water sources employed in North America, as well as the need to find the right balance for crop needs and soil health \u2013&nbsp; all with an eye to longer-term sustainability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEach crop has its own characteristic demand. Where you farm and water quality makes a difference to the management steps that may be needed, including water treatments and soil amendments. There are other beneficial uses to irrigation. It could be for managing salt, for frost control, or tillage for example. It can be an important tool to maintain soil balance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Synch systems, water amount and timing with crop needs:<\/strong> Terry Tindall discussed challenges growers and agronomists should keep front of mind when implementing irrigation over the long term. He noted that fortunately for the Pacific Northwest, water sources are based on reservoirs and snowpack that are reliably high quality. However, it\u2019s important to keep up with best practices for evolving irrigation delivery systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cManagement is the big factor. For example, most potato production now is under center pivot irrigation. You\u2019ve got a great opportunity with this system to deliver exactly the water you need.\u201d He says that growers need to work on optimizing the water amounts applied, making sure soils are well irrigated consistently across fields. \u201cIt\u2019s important to use the right amount and timing to meet the water use efficiency requirements of the specific crop you\u2019re growing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Elemental sulfur strategy can be a true game changer. <\/strong>&nbsp;Rob Saik summed up the pivotal role elemental sulfur can play, noting today it is applied for the production of almost every high-value crop to both protect and maximize the grower\u2019s investment. But not all sources of elemental sulfur are equal to get the job done right, he noted. In addition to source quality, it\u2019s important to have a low dust granular form \u2013&nbsp; such as Keg River\u2019s bentonite sulfur offerings \u2013&nbsp; to have the best delivery for soil and crop needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He asked Brooke Bateman to explain further. \u201cThe low dust aspect is key to get the sulfur through all the transportation and other handling it needs to endure before getting to the field,\u201d says Bateman. \u201cBentonite Sulphur is an excellent vehicle. When the bentonite fertilizer is applied, it gets activated by the irrigation water, the bacterial oxidation process gets underway and the delivery is very efficient, cost-effective and targeted.\u201d There is a wide window of application timing and fall application is becoming very popular, he noted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p>Irrigation water is the single greatest limiting factor for successful crop growth in the West. Getting it right is essential for crop production today and into the future.<\/p>\n<cite>Dr. Terry Tindall<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to watch the full webinar to get all the information and insights.
