Kynoplus Pro: Precision nutrition for modern crop performance

In today’s farming environment, every input must deliver real agronomic value. Kynoplus Pro is formulated to support key physiological processes throughout the growing season, helping crops perform consistently under changing field conditions.

Built on a performance-driven approach to plant nutrition, Kynoplus Pro delivers targeted support across four critical areas:

▪️ Balance – Supports balanced plant growth through optimal nutrient distribution and steady vegetative development.
▪️ Efficiency – Improves nutrient efficiency, enhancing uptake and utilisation of applied nutrients.
▪️ Resilience – Enhances crop resilience, helping plants better withstand environmental and physiological stress.
▪️ Performance – Drives yield potential by supporting reproductive development and overall crop productivity.

Kynoplus Pro is more than a nutritional input. It is part of a precision approach to unlocking consistent yield outcomes through improved crop function and efficiency.

Kynoch was recently invited to present at the Capacity Building Workshop, continuing our long-standing partnership with the CEO of Vaalharts Water.

Since 2019, Kynoch has proudly supported this initiative by delivering annual training sessions that equip local farmers with the knowledge and tools needed to improve productivity and sustainability.

While these sessions traditionally focus on the fundamentals of soil composition and soil health, this year’s presentation placed a stronger emphasis on practical, crop-focused insights that farmers can apply directly in the field.

Key focus areas included:

▪The importance of plant population data and proper planning

▪Planting at the right time, and the risks of late planting, including shortened growing seasons. A key takeaway: the sun ultimately determines your crop’s potential

▪How planting depth and effective seedbed preparation influence a crop’s ability to handle stress

▪Core fertilizer principles and building effective fertilizer programmes

By combining technical knowledge with practical application, the session aimed to help farmers make better-informed decisions that improve yield potential and long-term soil performance.

Kynoch remains committed to supporting the agricultural community through ongoing knowledge-sharing and training initiatives that drive sustainable growth and better farming outcomes.

Balanced Nutrition is the Foundation of Crop Performance

Plants need the right balance of 16 essential elements to grow and perform at their best.

These include:
▪️ Macro elements (N, P, K)
▪️ Secondary elements (Ca, Mg, S)
▪️ Micro elements (Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, B, Mo)

Even a small imbalance can limit yield, reduce efficiency, and impact crop health.

Getting the balance right means better growth, stronger crops, and improved yields.

Food for thought:

A handful of micronutrient granules scattered in a field only reaches a few plants.

When micronutrients are coated onto every fertilizer granule, roots get the nutrients they need exactly where they grow.

That’s the idea behind Kynoch’s Ultra™ micronutrient coating — helping crops take up nutrients more efficiently and grow stronger from the start.

Enhancing Winter Grain Profitability Starts with Balanced Nutrition

Winter grain producers face increasing pressure from rising input costs and unpredictable rainfall. Getting nutrition right from the start is more important than ever.

Ultra™ micronutrient coating from Kynoch delivers essential micronutrients directly with granular fertilizer, ensuring even distribution and early nutrient availability during critical crop development stages.

By integrating micronutrients at planting through OptiStart, producers can support stronger crop establishment and improve nutrient efficiency.

DAY 2 | Kynoch Annual Green Tour 2026 – Witdraai Farm, Villiersdorp

Our next stop took us to Witdraai Farm in the Overberg – a mixed farming enterprise near the Threewaterskloof Dam, run by father and son.

What stood out:
▪️ A strong focus on conservation agriculture – no-till planting and stubble retention
▪️ Impressive organic matter levels (1.8–2.4%) in generally acidic soils
▪️ Crop rotation between wheat, canola, oats and barley
▪️ Livestock integration, including a growing Braford stud, supporting long-term sustainability

With highly variable rainfall (from 180mm to over 800mm in recent seasons), adaptive management is key. Despite late-season drought, the farm achieved average yields of 2.4 t/ha wheat and 1.8 t/ha canola.

A great example of balancing productivity, conservation, and resilience in the Overberg.

DAY 2 | Kynoch Annual Green Tour 2026 – Bonnievale Region

On Day 2, we explored Bonnievale in the Breede River Valley – a hub of vineyards, dairy farms, orchards, and vegetable production.

Highlights:
▪️ Wine grapes averaging ~22 t/ha alongside diverse crops and dairy operations
▪️ Year-round water supply from the Breede River
▪️ Soils range from sandy topsoils to clay subsoils, with gypsum applied where needed
▪️ Precision nutrient management ensures healthy crops and long-term soil health

It was inspiring to see diverse farming systems thriving together while prioritising sustainability and productivity.
