YaraLiva® CN-9®

Cotton: Apply YaraLiva® CN-9® 9-0-0 11 as a starter fertilizer at rates of 4 gallons/acre if in furrow, 9 gallons per acre if 2X2 placement, or 12 gallons per acre if applied as a 4 inch band over the top. Utilizing YaraLiva® CN-9® as a starter gives your crop fast acting nitrate nitrogen along with soluble calcium, which results in greater seedling vigor. YaraLiva® CN-9® can also be used to supply part of the nitrogen demands during the season through fertigation according to yield potential, soil type, and soil test. Consult with your agronomist for local recommendations.

Citrus: For young trees up to 2 years old apply 2-3 lbs YaraLiva® CN-9® 9-0-0 11 Ca/tree/year. For mature trees apply 1500-2250 lbs YaraLiva® CN-9® 9-0-0 11/acre via fertigation. Apply pre-bloom for best results. Utilizing YaraLiva® CN-9® for part or all of the nitrogen needs supplies the crop with fast acting nitrate nitrogen and supplies soluble calcium in proper ratio with nitrate nitrogen. Calcium is important for cell wall strength and to limit physiological disorders such as cracking and creasing. Consult with your agronomist for local recommendations.

Apple: At establishment and for young, non-bearing trees apply .1-.25 pounds N/tree. Utilizing YaraLiva products such as CN-9 (dependent upon application preferences and cultural practices) will supply nitrate-N for rapid uptake and vegetative growth. Soluble Ca is also provided which ensures proper cell division and growth during tree establishment. For established orchards, apply 55-70 lbs N/ac in split applications at post harvest and again in spring at flowering. The rate is dependent upon several factors such as soil and tissue analysis as well as variety, tree population and pruning. Calcium is also very important for cell wall strength and to ensure against physiological disorders such as bitter pit. Consult local agronomist for further details and local recommendations.

Almond: Young trees (1-3 years) benefit from nitrate applications as YaraLiva CN-9 because nitrate nitrogen is readily available as well as soluble calcium for cell wall and membrane formation and soil health. Apply 15-60 lb N/Acre depending on tree age and vigor, at least 1/3 of which should be applied as YaraLiva CN-9 in the early application. Mature trees need 70 lbs of N/Acre for each 1,000 lbs of nut yield goal. Applications should be split throughout the growing season and adjusted to reflect changes in yield goal. Early applications of YaraLiva CN-9 help assure N absorption in cool weather and good nut set. Consult your agronomist for further details.

Lettuce (field grown): Apply up to 375-1775 lbs YaraLiva® CN-9® 9-0-0 11 Ca/acre in split applications according to yield potential and soil test. Apply no more than 25% N needs at planting. Apply the remainder in side dress applications via fertigation. Utilizing YaraLiva® CN-9® for part or all of the nitrogen needs supplies the crop with fast acting nitrate nitrogen and will provide soluble calcium in proper ratio with nitrate nitrogen. Calcium is important in reducing tip burn, and producing crunchy lettuce with a good shelf life. Consult with your agronomist for local recommendations.

Grapevines: Table Grapes: Apply up to 550-1000 lbs YaraLiva® CN-9® 9-0-0 11 Ca/acre according to vine age, expected yield, and soil test. Apply 50% N needs prior to bud break and the remainder post-bloom via fertigation. Utilizing YaraLiva® CN-9® for part or all of the nitrogen needs supplies the crop with fast acting nitrate nitrogen and will provide soluble calcium in proper ratio with nitrate nitrogen. Calcium is important for berry quality and firmness as well as disease resistance. Consult with your agronomist for local recommendations. Wine Grapes: Apply up to 325-900 lbs YaraLiva® CN-9® 9-0-0 11 Ca/acre according to variety, vine age, expected yield and soil test. Apply 50% N needs prior to bud break and the remainder post-bloom via fertigation. Utilizing YaraLiva® CN-9® for part or all of the nitrogen needs supplies the crop with fast acting nitrate nitrogen and will provide soluble calcium in proper ratio with nitrate nitrogen. Calcium helps to reduce berry splitting and increases disease resistance. Consult with your agronomist for local recommendations.

Strawberry (field grown): Apply up to 650-2200 lbs YaraLiva® CN-9® 9-0-0 11 Ca/acre in split applications according to variety, yield potential, and soil test. Apply 50% prior to pegging, with the remainder side dressed via fertigation. For perennial plantings, apply 125-250 lbs CN-9®/acre post harvest. Utilizing YaraLiva® CN-9® for part or all of the nitrogen needs supplies the crop with fast acting nitrate nitrogen and will provide soluble calcium in proper ratio with nitrate nitrogen. Calcium is important for producing firm berries with good shelf life and helps with disease resistance. Consult with your agronomist for local recommendations.
