What is a key goal of fertilizer applicators under the ProFACT program?

Ensuring compliance with environmental regulations is a central goal of fertilizer applicators involved in the ProFACT program. This initiative emphasizes the importance of following legal guidelines and best practices to mitigate the environmental impact of fertilizer use. It incorporates the principles of sustainable agriculture, focusing on responsible application techniques that protect soil health, water quality, and biodiversity. By prioritizing compliance, fertilizer applicators are equipped to make informed decisions that contribute to both regulatory adherence and environmental stewardship, ultimately fostering safe and effective agricultural practices. This goal aligns with the broader mission of promoting responsible fertilizer application while ensuring that agricultural productivity does not come at the expense of environmental safety.
