When it comes to fertilizer, we often hear the terms mobile and immobile nutrients. As plants grow, mobile nutrients move easily throughout the plant. Some immobile nutrients are chemically bound to the soil or to residue because of their ionic charge, making them soil-bound. Soil-bound nutrients can be unlocked through nutrient cycling. Microbial activity contributes to that process in the soil. As microbes grow and colonize in the soil, they digest nutrients and break them down into smaller, more accessible forms that plants can utilize. Supporting microbial activity in the soil by adding a biological fertilizer complement to your liquid or granular fertilizer applications is a crucial way to increase the return on fertilizer investments.
