The Maximum Farming System is a science-based, practical approach designed to maximize farm profitability and nutrient use efficiency. Unlike add-on programs, the System reallocates input dollars to achieve the highest return per unit of production.

Ag Spectrum works one-on-one with farmers to implement proven principles that improve soil health, crop energy, and nutrient efficiency throughout the growing season.

Unlike traditional, product-focused methods that are based on applied science, the Maximum Farming System utilizes basic science to explain the “why” behind every recommendation. Basic science focuses on repeatable, proven science that applies across crops and geographies, giving farmers confidence in consistent results.

The Maximum Farming System is designed to address the 5R’s by applying the right product, in the right form, in the right amount, at the right time, and in the right place to achieve the highest efficiency possible. This systematic approach leads to improved soil health and strong yields.

Our customers understand why we recommend specific products and rates, and how and when to use them, which ensures farmers provide their crop what it needs, when it needs it, in a form it can actually use.

• ST/MZ Soil Testing for precise nutrient recommendations

• Proprietary products designed to enhance soil and plant activity

• Maximum Farming Reports for data-driven decisions

• Personalized Support from Ag Spectrum experts

This integrated approach ensures continuous improvement and measurable results.

The System works for all crops because soil health and nutrient efficiency matter for every crop. Production timelines are currently available for corn, soybeans, wheat, cotton, and sugarbeets.

Recommendations are tailored to your farm’s crops and conditions for consistent results

Ag Spectrum invests in research to gain a deeper knowledge of how and why plants perform and develop. Since 1984, the company has invested heavily in basic science research to create, refine, and optimize the Maximum Farming System. That investment has focused on understanding the fundamental principles of soil and plant science to determine nutrient availability and crop yield potential.

With this understanding, we have determined optimal rates, forms, timing, and placement of specific combinations of fertilizers and soil amendments for improved soil health and nutrient use efficiency. This has resulted in a complete crop production system that leads to healthy crops, high yields and maximized net returns.

The report combines soil tests, planting data, and yield results to provide actionable insights. It helps farmers evaluate decisions, identify opportunities, and plan for future success.
