Combining microbial biochemistry with ATS, Extract XC accelerates residue breakdown and supports better soil health and crop performance.
Loveland Products, Inc. has launched its Extract XC, a next-generation product of its trusted Extract Powered by Accomplish (Extract PBA).
In a new concentrated formulation, Extract XC helps farmers release more nitrogen and sulfur from crop residue, using half the product per acre compared to previous versions. Easier handling and proven results make it simple to integrate residue management into fall and spring fertility programs.
“Farmers are always looking for ways to get more out of every dollar they invest,” stated Ron Calhoun, Senior Manager, Plant Nutrition, for Loveland Products. “With Extract XC, they can get more nutrients working for their next crop while handling fewer jugs and making fewer passes. It’s about making fall fertility simpler, more efficient, and more profitable.”
When crop residue ties up nitrogen and sulfur, it can limit fertilizer efficiency, early crop growth, and yield potential. Extract XC addresses this challenge by combining microbial-derived biochemistry with ammonium thiosulfate (ATS) to accelerate residue breakdown, balance the carbon-to-nitrogen ratio, and release nutrients in a plant-available form, even under cool conditions.
Benefits of Extract XC:
- Maximizes nutrient release from crop residues and soil;
- Extends nutrient availability later into the season;
- Supports easier spring planting and even crop emergence;
- Optimizes yield potential for the following crop
Designed for flexibility, Extract XC can be applied with fall burndown or liquid fertilizer and is compatible with herbicides such as glyphosate. This enables farmers to enhance nutrient availability without requiring additional field passes, thereby saving time and labor.
By increasing nutrient use efficiency, Extract XC enhances the uptake of both residue-released nutrients and applied fertilizer. This supports higher yield potential while lowering input costs. In addition, the product promotes nutrient cycling and soil health, which can contribute to long-term productivity and deliver better results for growers.
As growers prepare their autumn fertility plans, Extract XC offers a practical way to get more from every acre by putting residue nutrients back to work for the next crop.
