These corn seedlings from Western Iowa demonstrate the effects of our Bio-Cal treatment. The control seedling is on the left. The seedling treated with Bio-Cal is on the right side of the image. The control seedling lacks the height and fullness of the seedling treated with Bio-Cal. In high magnesium soils, Bio-Cal has the soluble calcium your crops need. Our unique lime sources allow for both highly available, and slow-release calcium for more available nutrients throughout the growing season. Bio-Cal also improves soil structure. Improved soil structure helps with preventable root crowding at the soil surface and allows for the roots to impede more in the soil for more nutrient capture. Deeper roots mean heartier more resilient crops, which lead to better yields. Another example of how Midwestern BioAg creates strong foundations for maximized potential. 

 

Unlock your soil’s potential with Bio-Cal. Apply Bio-Cal on high magnesium soils to improve structure, drainage, and nutrient balance – and give your alfalfa a boost after first cutting to support strong regrowth and higher yields.  

Reduces compaction 

Improves calcium-to-magnesium ratio 

Supports healthier, more productive stands  

Apply Bio-Cal where and when it counts.
