The mineral fertiliser is granulated
for use with standard seeding and spreading
equipment with application rates similar to chemical
fertilisers. Features include:
Organic
Carbon (Lignite)- selected for its neutral pH
with high Humates and available Fulvic Acid, which
are significant in buffering toxicity in soils and
increasing nutrient absorption by plants.
Plant Available Silicate – increases the
translocation (movement) of nutrients within the
plant and increases water efficiency by reducing
transpiration. Additionally, improved cell wall
strength aids in the control of insects and fungi.
Silicate in mineral fertiliser has been demonstrated
to reduce salt effects on plants.
NPK nutrients are in both a natural and
chemical form, which steadily release over the
growing period. The chemical N & P are of a form
that is least damaging to the living part of the
soil with the Potassium in the natural form.
Minor and trace minerals in both quick and
slow release forms, including Calcium, Sulphur,
Magnesium, Manganese, Zinc, Copper, Selenium, Cobalt
etc.
High Cation Element - which helps tie up
aluminium. These fertilisers are not acidic and
contain the basic cations for reducing soil acidity.
The
minerals stimulate biological activity in the soil
and in conjunction with a Probiotic program the
activated microbes encourage the conversion of the
majority of nutrients into plant available forms.
Microbes release bound up nutrients and allow us to
utilise the “free” nutrients like atmospheric
nitrogen. An algae converts atmospheric carbon into
carbon molecules in the soil, and microbes break
down stubble and crop residue for steady nutrient
release.
The blends offer an economic alternative to high
chemical usage, and help to realise the full
potential of the soil, resulting in good yield and
quality from our crops. Several blends are suitable
for organic agriculture.
