It is a big deal. Millions of Dollars
Made With Exactrix.
From $60
minimum and up to $150 more net income per
acre on 50,000 acres in 5 years.
Maybe
$5,000,000 more net income at ½ the typical fertilizer cost for
Garden City, KS.

How come Exactrix works so well?
When Nutrient costs go up 300% to 800% above
the cost of production.
When commodity prices don’t go up and banker
gets unfriendly.
When Oligarchs get their way with your
bottom line as a producer or a fertilizer dealer.
It takes free enterprise, specialized
engineers, and chemists to develop machines that make nutrients work
as stimulants.
NH3 was developed by Shell and TVA
Engineers, NH3e, high pressure injection (300 psi) NH3 is developed
by Exactrix Engineers with the help of TVA chemists.
- Exactrix®
has application CV of 1% over all flow ranges and temperatures
using good old NH3 as Primary Nitrogen.
- Only stable
NH3 or ammonium is used avoiding costly application of Nitrate
based 32-0-0, nitrate is an environmental disaster annually.
- Only 1 lb.
of N is out of place in 100 lbs. applied compared to 25% to 50% CV
application of dry fertilizer.
- Liquid
streaming flows are produced developing stimulants in lineal bands
in No-tillage Rotational Band Loading.
- The lineal
bands are a polymer chain link of NPKS plus micros in a 7 to 8
inch deep band target for roots.
- The terms,
“Soil Builders” and “Plant Food” are
marketing curve balls in eyes of Exactrix owners.
- Exactrix
owners build “Stimulant” and reduce the N
application rate from 300 lbs. N to 150 lbs. N as NH3 under center
pivots.
- The Crop
availability of Nitrogen as ammonium (82-0-0) is improved 200% as
compared to application with a pivot.
- The Crop
availability of Phosphate (10-34-0) is improved 300% as compared
to top dressed application of P.
- Thio-sul®
(12-0-0-26S) provides stability of the Nitrogen and makes N and P
highly crop available.
- Micro
Nutrients, low cost Ammoniated Zinc, (16-0-0-20Zn) in a polymer
Homogenous blend with NPKS assures uniform access and timing to
the crop.
-
KTS(0-0-25-17S) is commonly applied with up to 20 times more
efficiency than KCL (0-0-60K-40Cl) top dress applications.
Note:
The term Soil Builders is a
trademark of J.R. Simplot Company.
The term Plant Food Center is a
Cominco American trademark.
Environmental Disaster Annually. The
pivot application rate of nitrate, 32-0-0 of 300 lbs. N per acre is
common for 300 bushel per acre corn.
NH3 as
82-0-0 (82.4 N) is primary nitrogen and stabilized with
Thio-Sul® at 120 to 140 lbs. N per acre. Primary Nitrogen is also
Aqua Ammonia at 20-0-0 and stable.
Solution 32-0-0 and 28-0-0 are salvage and
convenience nitrogen with no banding requirement with gigantic
losses into the environment.

Yielder®
Power, 7 to 8 inch deep
bands, Every pound of steel is oriented to Yielder® designs of
Exactrix.
Yielder®
Power from the Yielder
Drill, Manganese Steel Blades (up to 26.5 inch diameter) and Cat Duo
Cone Sealed Timken Pinion bearing hubs.
Yielder Drills
still after 38 years, are the highest yielding of all No-till
drills.
Low operating
cost.
Operating at
high speeds in No-tillage.
Providing
environmental punch that solves the $120 to $150 nutrient cost
problem.
Stimulants
raise big crops with large margins.

Nutrients Become Stimulants
A beautiful seed bed at Garden City.
A testimonial to Mustang Openers at 8.1 mph or
1 acre per minute.
Swiveling Mustang Openers running deep leaves
no soil disturbance.
Ideal for cover cropping systems where
nutrients become stimulants.
Keep the moisture in the ground.
Line up on the 15 inch bands with your 30 inch
planter with no root burn, total safety and high efficiency.
Fixed angle openers cannot compete for the 7 to
8 inch banding zone.
Deep vermiculated bands allows the planter to
run right on top of the Mustang Band.
Make Phosphate more crop available. Cut the
Phosphate bill to 1/3 of the university recommendation and still
build soil test P.

An old fashioned way of applying fertilizer.
5.
Wasted Fertilizer.
A Low Yielding Perennial Crop, Everybody
including the fertilizer dealer losses. Cominico/Agrium/Potash wins.
There is no chance to be profitable when the
nutrients are applied with high variability.

In some cases double applied as shown in the checker
board at the top of the hill.
·
Draining right next to the Palouse River in a 40 inch
rainfall and into the Snake and the Columbia.
·
Top Dress Urea Fertilizer, The Third World of
commercial fertilizer.
·
Annual Corn or perennial Bluegrass it makes no
difference every pound of N must go to work and into the crop.
·
Right to point of diminishing returns and never
over-applied.
·
Every second pound of N applied is lost to the
environment at Princeton, Idaho.

From Idaho To Nebraska, Producers Make More Money When They Park
The Floater.
-
In 2019 Exactrix offers 70 to 80 foot single disc application with
high speed tool bars at 1.5 acres per minute.
Location:
Shelton, Nebraska.
Date
April 11, 18.
System: Tillage
Application: Top Dressing.
Crop?, Beans, Corn or Seed
Corn.
Truly Variable
Rate without a prescription. Mostly a
non-site-specific application and only site specific with a little
bit of luck.
A good waste
of money….with the non- accurate end gun.
Technology of
the past. Even though the dry fertilizer applicator has been
recently produced.
Fluid lime
application VRT-Site Specific requires about
1/3 to ½ as much material to be crop effective.
Tons Moved,
Moving the fertilizer with the over application of NPK
. Way over applied and the only benefactor is the
manufacturer of the material. The fertilizer dealer has a customer
that is not as profitable.
Millions of
tons lost in the Salvage and Convenience mode. Gone to the
environment of the lakes, streams and gulfs. About
30% to 50% the top dress applied nutrients are lost into the
environment.
A tillage
system is indicated with the next producer conclusion that tillage
is uniform.
Does the end
gun compete with the rest of the pivot?, no
wonder a rainstorm is always better. The application must be uniform
allowing a slow perk ( no runoff) into the soil.
One step above
the Third World is the current dry fertilizer application
techniques.
Every producer
can afford an Exactrix Application whether TAPPS is custom applied
or TAPPS is applied on their own land.
TAPPS has $60
to $150 per acre advantage and Exactrix No-tillage is
environmentally on the mark.
Exactrix TAPPS
is nitrogen stabilized with Thio-sul® in a deep band making all
placed nutrients highly crop available.
Exactrix® Crystalline TAPPS and TAPPKTS
winner of two national awards.
The crop prefers ammonium.
Anhydrous Ammonia and Snow go together
hand and glove.
6.
Is it windy
in Nebraska?
No wonder
it only takes about 1/3 the phosphate with Exactrix TAPPS. 100 lbs.
P vs. 30 lbs. P and building soil test with Rotational Band Loading.
The
process of application determines how effective the fertilizer as
applied becomes, they are all the same in
the tank, the Exactrix® process determines
the correct rate.
The enemy of the environment and the producer economics is top
dressed fertilizer, liquid or dry.

Gravity
application can never be accurate.
VRT-Site
Specific becomes failure prone to the wind, the non homogenous blend
or no chain link of the dry materials, and lack of positional
available nutrients.
A windy day in
Nebraska without a prescription assures and application that is
variable rate with 50 to 100 unplanned zones.
Floater
application matches the technology of the end gun.
Top Dressed
Fertilizer is destroying
our water quality and the gulf environment.

Lake Erie and The
Palouse Clean Up. The Roots of No-tillage
and Fertilizer
What is the
answer?
Completely VRT-Site Specific in all flow ranges at 1% CV of
application with a full rate change in 1 to 2 seconds.
Pressures to 300 psi, no gravity effect in
the application. No wind interference, TAPPS is in the root zone at
7 to 8 inch depth.
And available for future crops without tillage.

Extreme
Double edge blades penetrate deep to 7 to 8 inches.
Yielder ® Manganese Steel Blades, show
polish and the only significant wear part to be replaced.
Operating for about $1.25 to $1.65 per acre on 15 inch spacing.
Operating cost on 30 inch is less than a sprayer.
Beats a Deere 2510 by 5 times in lower operating cost.
Takes less horsepower and goes deeper.

Low
compaction, High speed performance, No-tillage TAPPS with Thio-sul®
at 7 to 8 inch depths.
An adjoining
field to the Floater dry fertilizer application.
Gangwish Seed Farm, applying
Mustang TAPPS with a positive down pressure 3015 tool bar at 1% CV
of application in liquid streaming flows.
Attention:
TAPPS is applied at .7 to .8 of the university
recommendation for N and 1/3 the rate for P. The Top
rate is 160 to 170 lbs. N for a 300 bushel per acre crop at Shelton.
At this point 4,000 acres to go, with a jump start covering three
pivots a day with three variable rate corn planters pushing the
Mustang Tool Bar hard.
Some of the
most valuable farmland in North America is No-tillage.
A great way to raise a big crop with $60 to $150 per acre more net
margin. That margin increase will help pay the taxes on land worth
$8,000 to $12,000 per acre.
