Potato farmers in Cerro Punta Volcán, Chiriquí, Panama, added AZOMITE to a 12-24 12 NPK fertilizer program in quantities of 53 lb/ac and 71 lb/ac and compared yields to a control field using solely NPK for 28 days. The results showed a favorable cost benefit via an increase in salable yield with AZOMITE.
