To farm successfully, a lot of things need to go right. One of the most basic ingredients to success is soil.  Ensuring healthy soil is one of the four foundational elements of the grower tools developed at Redox Bio-Nutrients.  It’s also a top priority of Cody Hatzenbuhler, agronomist and owner of Pan Ag, who works with growers in North Dakota and surrounding areas to find solutions to help them get the most from their crops. “Soil health is a passion of mine and trying to keep that biology going with a lot of non-commercial fertilizers,” he said. “There’s always something new for the growers I work with. I like to find new products that we can change the methods of applying fertilizer more efficiently. … including with new companies like Redox. We can apply less fertilizer in more efficient ways that the plant can use and uptake.” Cody’s family arrived in North Dakota from Germany in 1902, making him the fifth generation to farm.  He spent more than a decade at the US Department of Agriculture working in natural resource management, teaching farmers about the soil and how to protect it from wind and water erosion, trying to protect it for future generations.  Hatzenbuhler said growers understand the value of protecting soil for future generations of farmers.
