For the Ruehs family, sustainability is not just a trend; it’s essential to their farming success. Their farm has been using MichiGreen™ fertilizer for the past four years, and they have seen a positive impact on their soil.

“When we started using this, this would probably have been 170-175 bushel corn ground,” one of the brothers shared. “Now, two or three years in, it really shows. This year, we’re expecting around 225-230 bushels per acre.”


The key to their success? MichiGreen™ slow-release fertilizer. This nutrient-rich organic-based amendment enhances soil health by:

  • Providing essential nutrients when plants need them most

  • Improving soil structure and resilience

  • Boosting yields while reducing reliance on synthetic fertilizers

With a simple yet effective application process—worked into the soil with vertical tillage—the Ruehs brothers ensure nutrients remain in place for their crops to access. This year, they planted their corn without any additional nitrogen applications, yet their fields are thrived.


For the Ruehs family, sustainable farming is about more than just yields—it’s about legacy. By keeping input costs low and protecting the environment, they’re ensuring their children will have the opportunity to carry on the farming tradition.

“Farming the same ground that my dad farmed, and his dad farmed—it’s special. We’re making sure our farm stays viable for the future.”
