Front Row Ag formulator explains why our fertilizer is made with purified, prilled calcium nitrate. It provides stable nitrate nitrogen in “exceedingly high abundance,” supports protein formation, improves metabolic consistency, and avoids the volatility that can derail steering and crop uniformity.

Ammonium isn’t “bad” - it’s just less predictable for high-value crop production. Purified CalNit like the main component in our Part A fertilizer, gives you control, consistency, and the absolute best protein formation.
