Lebanon Extra Plant Food
For over 47 years, farmers have been choosing Lebanon Extra
for premium homogeneous/ammoniated plant food. Lebanon
Extra is ideal for use in row applications where nutrient safety
and consistency is crucial to yields. And its homogeneous/
ammoniated granules offer superior performance over so-called
“Custom-formulated” blends.

A blend of raw materials can result in uneven feeding. Unlike
homogeneous/ammoniated granules which deliver all the prim
ary nutrients and micronutrients in each particle ensuring
even distribution for consistent performance.
