Frequently asked questions
What is Versa Max?
Versa Max is a comprehensive portfolio of macro and micronutrient blends designed to improve plant health, defend against stresses, and increase yields. Foliar applications allow for enhanced plant uptake, and they should be used as part of a complete fertility program to maximize yield potential.
What products are available in the Versa Max portfolio?
The Versa Max portfolio includes specialized formulations for different crops and applications:
- Versa Max AC (All Crops): A versatile blend with 7-0-1 analysis (7% N, 1% K, 3% S, 1% Fe, 2% Mn, 2% Zn), designed for a wide range of agronomic crops
- Versa Max Corn: A corn-specific formulation with 8-0-0 analysis (8% N, 3% S, 1% Fe, 2% Mn, 3% Zn), featuring an increased level of zinc to enhance corn production
- Versa Max Soybean: A soybean-optimized blend with 8-0-0 analysis (8% N, 3% S, 1% Fe, 3% Mn, 2% Zn), containing a higher level of manganese to boost yield potential
- Versa Max Mn (Manganese): A manganese-focused product with 0-0-0 analysis (3% S, 5% Mn), providing foliar manganese while preserving herbicide effectiveness and suitable for GMO crops; not for use with high orthophosphate fertilizers
- Versa Max BMo: A dual, synergistic micronutrient blend supplying boron and molybdenum (5% B, 0.5% Mo), promoting crop growth and reproductive development
How should Versa Max products be applied?
Most Versa Max products are designed for foliar applications or for use in starter fertilizers. They can be applied with foliar pesticides or soil fertilizers and may be used before or after deficiency symptoms appear. Specific applications include:
- Foliar: Applicable for all Versa Max
- Soil: Applicable for all products
- Always conduct a jar test for tank-mix compatibility, especially with pesticides.
What are the recommended use rates?
- Versa Max AC, Corn, Soybean, and Mn: 1 – 2 qt/A
- Versa Max BMo: 1 – 2 pt/A foliar
Can Versa Max be tank-mixed with other products?
Yes, Versa Max has improved tank-mixing capabilities due to its proprietary formulation.
What are the benefits of using Versa Max?
Versa Max helps crops defend against stresses, enhances nutrient uptake, and maximizes yield potential by addressing Liebig’s Law of the Minimum (yield limited by the scarcest resource). It provides versatile nutrition, improved plant health, and is a tool for preventing or correcting deficiencies. The proprietary polymer adds humectancy, stabilizes the formulation, and improves compatibility with herbicides like glyphosate.
