How to Do It Series 2 - Episode 3 - Calcium Strategies

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to Episode 3 of Season 2 of the “How to Do It” video series. In this episode, you will learn a little more about the master mineral, Calcium. There is a strong argument that calcium is the most important player in high-production fertility, crop quality, and disease resistance. Calcium is required for the cell division that sponsors growth, it governs the cellular delivery of all minerals, and many underestimate this mineral's yield-building potential.

Calcium is the most immobile of all minerals and this immobility is further compounded by the impact of excesses of other minerals. In fact, this critically important player is seriously reduced by the antagonistic effect of nitrogen, magnesium, potassium and sodium if they have been oversupplied.

In this video, I will cite examples of impressive yield increases linked directly to calcium nutrition and, unpack the complex interactions with Boron, Silica, Fungi, Legumes and share a range of DIY strategies for delivering sufficient Calcium to your crop, 

Calcium is the key mineral if we are proactively striving to reduce the need for chemical intervention because it builds cell wall strength; with this calcium-based barrier, we aim to buckle the hyphae of fungal invaders and snap the mandibles of leaf-eating insects. 

Hopefully, you will be more calcium-conscious after these tips and strategies.

Happy Nutrition Farming!

Warm regards,
