Event Date
IFA Potassium webinar

The International Fertilizer Association (IFA) and the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) invite you to a discussion on the latest research into potassium limitation and its impact on global crop yields.

Experts will share key findings, examine regional trends, and explore practical solutions for potassium management to support long-term agricultural productivity and sustainability.

Hear about this industry supported IFA project to examine the extent to which potassium deficiency is limiting crop yields globally. 

What to expect?

This session will explore three key areas:

Understanding the challenge – what does the latest global research reveal about potassium limitation?

Regional insights – how is potassium deficiency affecting key agricultural systems?

Sustainable solutions – what strategies can improve potassium management for long-term yield stability?

 

With academic experts.

Patricio Grassini, University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL) – A leading expert in agronomy, specializing in yield potential, productivity gaps and resource-use efficiency across global cropping systems​.

Walter Carciochi, UNL – Research Assistant Professor focused on nutrient cycling and fertilizer management, developing strategies to optimize potassium use while minimizing environmental impact​.

Achim Dobermann, IFA – A leading expert in soil science and plant nutrition, offering perspectives on sustainable nutrient stewardship and and potassium management best practices.

Presentations will be followed by a short Q&A
