You may have seen our billboards or television advertisements
for MicroEssentials. We are now widely
using MicroEssentials SZ (or MESZ as we’ve come to call it) as our main phosphate
source throughout my trade territory.
In short, MESZ is a 12-40-0-10-1 with the extra digits being
10# of sulfur and 1# of Zinc. It is a
MAP based product that incorporates sulfur and zinc while forming EACH
granule. This means two things: MUCH better distribution of sulfur and zinc
and more readily available phosphate to the plant.
After a extensive testing, Mosaic decided to run both elemental
(slow breakdown) and AMS (quick breakdown) sulfur into each granule to maximize
sulfur availability throughout the season.
Through comparative tests of MAP or DAP based fertilizer,
Mosaic was able to produce about a 10 bushel gain using MESZ. Below are some videos from Mosaic that better
illustrate the product’s advantages as well as some pictures from our own
company trials.
