1. Promote root growthCrop root growth is completed by the continuous division and elongation of root tip. Cytokinin is an important hormone to promote root cell division. Histidine is a catalytic enzyme for cytokinin synthesis, which promotes the synthesis of cytokinin, thus stimulating the division and growth of root tip meristem cells, inducing the growth of adventitious roots, making seedlings root faster, main roots grow, lateral roots increase, and root length and volume increase, It is beneficial to the formation of root morphology. Histidine is a natural metal chelating agent, which can chelate the insoluble medium and trace elements in the soil to form a chelate with good solubility and easy to be absorbed by crops, so as to prevent the elements from being fixed in the soil and plants, enhance the absorption and utilization of nutrients by the root system, and promote the growth of the root system...

So we’ve got to be diligent about choosing the right path forward to slow the disappearance of all three. We sat down with Monte Bottens, northwest Illinois farmer and Founder/CEO of Ag Solutions Network to have a conversation about 2022 harvest and his diligence with prioritizing soil health on their farm. “It's all connected,” he said, “the crop’s health, our livestock health, and our health...
