“I have seen great results from using Feed Central’s Captain’s Blend, both in the wheat and the corn. The crop responded well with a very easy belt spreader application.
It is cost-effective in the supply of nutrients. We will be using this product again this season pre plant for our wheat. The wheat was sold for hay, to some of Feed Central’s key customers.”
