Agronomy Amendments
SOIL AGRONOMY SOLUTIONS FOR A RICH HARVEST
Minerals like limestone and gypsum amend soil structure while balancing acidity to increase crop nutritional quality and enhance growth. Whether your soil is heavy, sandy, acidic or pH neutral, we provide a soil agronomy solution to increase nutrient availability and balance soil pH for a healthy harvest season after season.
Agronomy Solutions Formulated for Midwestern Growers
GLC Minerals manufactures calcium-and magnesium-based soil amendments for bulk broadcast application in the Midwest. Our products offer consistent particle size distribution to deliver fast acting soil nutrition, unlike pelletized soil enhancers which requires dissolution to activate.

Soil Enhancement Recommended by Agronomists for Higher Yields
Heavy soil impedes proper potato growth while sandy soil lacks adequate structure for corn crops. Calcium and sulfur deficient soil lacks necessary nutrients that crops need to thrive. Soil amendments correct these common issues for greater yields.
