OPTIPLON ® 4

EU FERTILISING PRODUCT ● GRANULATED ● COMPLEX MACRONUTRIENT FERTILISER
NPK (Ca, S) 4-14-30 (10-9)

  • granulated fertiliser intended for all types of agricultural plants
  • a valuable source of phosphorus in different chemical forms so that the phosphates from the fertiliser are released throughout the growing season
  • the ammoniacal nitrogen contained in the fertiliser granule binds well in the soil and supports the uptake of phosphorus, both from the fertiliser granules and from the soil
  • the added sulphur improves the efficiency of nitrogen fertilisers and also improves the defence of the plant against pathogen attacks
  • can be used in a set of pre-sowing cultivation measures for winter plants (rapeseed and cereals), ensuring an adequate supply of nitrogen, phosphorus and sulphur for the plants in autumn
  • when fertilising spring plants and permanent grasslands, it provides the full dose of phosphorus and increases the amount of available nitrogen in the first vegetation period
  • the fertiliser can be successfully recommended for localised fertilisation performed together with corn sowing or for a strip-till fertilisation system

Usage

Universal granulated fertiliser intended for all types of agricultural plants. In addition to routine fertilisation, the fertiliser can also be used to adjust the nutrient content of the soil. The fertiliser should be applied no later than a few days before sowing the plants and mixed with the soil. When using large doses in sugar beet cultivation, a minimum period of 14 days should be observed between fertiliser application and the sowing of the plants. It can be used on permanent grasslands both before the winter dormancy of the plants and during the beginning of spring vegetation. Doses should be applied according to the fertilisation demand of the cultivated plant, determined based on the content of available phosphorus and potassium in the soil and the specific yield.
