Laboratory conditions are ideal for developing high-efficiency fertilizer products, but they don't show us how these products work in real life conditions. That's where the NCRS comes in.

About the North Central Research Station:

Our products are developed through scientific research conducted in real cropping conditions at our North Central Research Station (NCRS). This research facility with more than 1,400 tillable acres, allows us to test our products, as well as other crop inputs, and study the challenges that farmers face every year, including drought, disease, fungus, and, perhaps most important, yield. It's this combination of expert chemistry and in-the-field research that helps AgroLiquid develop the best products, and helps our customers get the best return on their fertilizer investment.
