ABOUT THE SURVEY
The Fertilizer Use survey assists in understanding the current state of fertilizer management in Canadian crop production and how growers
use and make decisions about fertilizer applications. Conducted between the 2014 and 2019 growing seasons, the survey gathers data on
fertilizer management practices and current knowledge of 4R Nutrient Stewardship (Right Source, Right Rate, Right Time, Right Place®) from
growers across the country. The survey also captures baseline data about corn, soybean, and canola crops in Canada. This information is
essential for developing sustainability metrics and sound 4R Nutrient Stewardship strategies.
