LUBOFOS ® 12 MAKS

EU FERTILISING PRODUCT ● GRANULATED ● COMPLEX MACRONUTRIENT FERTILISER
PK (Ca, Mg, S) 12-25 (21-2-7)

  • granulated pre-sowing fertiliser for fertilising all types of field crops, particularly for soils low in potassium and magnesium
  • due to its high potassium content, the product is recommended for plants with a high potassium demand (root crops, winter rapeseed, permanent grasslands)
  • thanks to the magnesium content, it is also recommended for cereal and corn crops and grasslands
  • the added sulphur improves the efficiency of nitrogen fertilisers and also improves the defence of the plant against pathogen attacks
  • the micronutrients contained in the fertiliser granules improve the absorption of other minerals

Usage

The highest efficiency is achieved by applying the fertiliser before sowing and mixing it with the soil at a depth of 10–20 cm during pre-sowing tillage or pre-sowing ploughing.

On permanent grasslands, it is advisable to divide the dose into two parts and apply the first fertiliser dose in early spring and the second dose after harvesting the first cut or after the first grazing.

The fertiliser is also recommended for fertilisation in rotation in order to adjust the content of soil nutrients for the most demanding plants. Use the doses specified in fertiliser recommendations, taking into account the amount of available phosphorus and potassium in the soil.
