Deja de perder DINERO en Urea: Entiende la mineralogía de tu suelo | Rosa López 🌱💵

Did you know that more than 50% of the nitrogen you apply to your field never reaches the plants? The culprit isn't the weather, nor the type of urea... it's the mineral structure of your soil. In this episode of Voices from the Field, we talk with Dr. Rosa López, an expert in soil chemistry and mineralogy. We'll discover why minerals (including the dreaded iron and aluminum) are actually the "bodyguards" of your organic matter, and how excessive tillage can cause your soil to "sequester" the nitrogen you worked so hard to buy. In this episode you'll learn: 👉 Why conventional lab tests might be giving you inaccurate data. 👉 How iron and aluminum work at a neutral pH to protect your soil. 👉 The tillage paradox: why pulverizing the soil reduces natural mineralization. 👉 Strategies to stop wasting money on nitrogen fertilizers. 👇 Let us know in the comments what type of soil you have on your farm and how you manage your fertilization!
