There's Fertility Left in that Residue: Decomp Helps Put it Back to Work
Jenny Phillips, Director of Marketing • September 1, 2026

There’s still fertility sitting in that corn residue. DECOMP™ is designed to help put more of it back to work.



DECOMP is a complete biological residue-management system that works to accelerate the breakdown of stalks, leaves and root balls while moving crop-bound fertility back into active nutrient cycling.


And the latest data gives us a closer look at what that can mean.


In a Michigan leachate study, corn residue treated with DECOMP showed higher captured levels of potassium, phosphorus and nitrogen after 30–60 days compared to untreated residue. Replicated corn-after-corn research has also shown a +10 bu./A yield response across a two-year dataset.


The goal isn't just residue that disappears faster. It's breaking down lignin, releasing held nutrients and creating better planting conditions for the crop that follows.


Get more from the fertility you've already paid for.
