PROTOCOLL SYSTEM

Monty's Family of Encapsulated Fertilizers

THE NEXT GENERATION OF FERTILITY & NUTRIENT MANAGEMENT

Monty’s ProtoColl System is the next generation of humic technology. The unique fertilizer system is designed to make your nutrient program more efficient – stabilizing and maximizing nutrients in the soil – creating an unmatched environment for the soil biome to thrive. ProtoColl combines the benefits of both solid and liquid fertilizers, delivering both immediate nutrient availability and sustained release. This improved soil environment creates healthier roots and better plant growth.

 Benefits Include: 

  • A balanced macronutrient supply at planting
  • Reduces the amount of NPK inputs and applications throughout the season
  • Slower, more controlled release of nutrients all season
  • Less leaching and volitization of nutrients
  • Helps mitigate damaging salts
  • Lower use-rate compared to other NPK sources
  • Increased water retention to mitigate drought
  • Stabilized and maximized nutrients in the soil
  • More efficient nutrient uptake
  • Improved microbiome vitality for sustained plant nutrition
  • Healthier environment for the soil biology

The ProtoColl treated corn showed higher nutrient balance; larger, healthier roots and leaves; and larger ears – leading to significantly higher ROI.

NUTRIENT EFFICIENCY THROUGH POLYELECTROLYTE ENHANCED BIOPOLYMERS

TYPICAL LIQUID FERTILIZER

Positively and negatively charged micronutrients are applied to the soil. They can be insoluble, leach out, or have minimal impact on the plant and soil, costing farmers time and money.

MONTY'S PROTOCOLL SYSTEM

Monty’s ProtoColl System consists of bundled, micro-droplets (micelles) of nutrients encapsulated by PEBs – which maximize the nutrient’s efficiency.

The nutrients are held together by Monty’s PEB (Polyelectrolyte Enhanced Biopolymer) technology, forming a unique concentration of microdroplets (micelles), which act like a sticky glue.

Nutrients are encapsulated, occluded (absorbed), and held together in the PEB-forming nutrient micelles.

Monty’s PEB humic molecules are positively and negatively charged. They are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic, allowing them to more easily interact.

Monty’s ProtoColl System is a unique, balanced structure of encapsulated humics and nutrients ... creating an ideal environment that maximizes the nutrients availability to the plant.

STRUCTURE OF PROTOCOLL MICELLES

Structure_of_ProtoColl_Micelles

The image shows PEB molecules in solution, with blue representing water and brown representing PEB. PEB is modeled using a “ball and tail” to show its structure. The hydrophilic (water-attracting) groups form the tail, and the hydrophobic (water-repelling) carbon backbone forms the head. At typical concentrations, PEB forms micelle-like clusters, with hydrophobic heads inward and hydrophilic tails facing the water.

Interaction of ProtoColl Micelles with Soil Aggregates Compared with Conventional Starter

ProtoColl technology bridges liquid and solid fertilizers, offering efficient, controlled, gradual nutrient release. ProtoColl’s controlled colloidal size prevents filter clogging. Unlike conventional fertilizers that release all nutrients immediately and lose them through leaching or evaporation, ProtoColl provides protection against nutrient loss from leaching, evaporation, or denitrification, sustaining nutrient availability for improved plant uptake.

We could tell a huge difference in the treated and untreated area of that field the first year. We repeated the test the second year and were absolutely blown away. The corn was almost twice as tall and the yield was over 50 bushels more where we applied Monty’s Carbon for just two years.

Ben Hushon The Mill

Using Monty’s on my tobacco has gained us about 200-300 pounds per acre; last season, my son used it and raised 3,400 pounds, and the plot right next to it only raised 2,900 without Monty’s.

Andy Newton

I have 8,000 acres of corn, wheat, soybeans, and barley, as well as 600 head of beef cattle. I have been using Monty’s for the past 5 years. I use Monty’s Liquid Carbon in the row. I am very pleased with increased production and how my crops look. I have seen increased bushels, more drought tolerance, and better root development. Monty’s Liquid Carbon has been a good investment. It really helps on lower-producing soils and lower organic matter soils. It helps loosen soil. I have noticed the roots branch out more, are more vigorous, and penetrate the soil deeper. I have seen a 10-15 bushel increase in corn yields. I would recommend Monty’s to everyone!

Zach Rose

I would not have the success I’ve had without Monty’s Liquid Carbon.

Kevin Kalb

We can sell Monty’s Dri-Carbon with confidence. There is more soil activity; more life in the soil. The soil is more workable. It will raise organic matter and shows on a soil test. For soybeans and corn it helps the roots spread out more and helps soil use the nutrients. It adds pounds to tobacco. And it adds leaf structure, quantity, and size. Monty’s Dri-Carbon definitely works on pastures. They are green longer and more vibrant and they won’t dry down as fast. People who use it come back and ask for it the next year!
