The Importance of Trace Elements The Importance of Slow Release of having a High Analysis Release Rates for Goldencote and Nitro-King Special Formulae Granules or Tablets? The Importance of Trace Elements The application of N, P & K without trace elements in new soils is a waste of NPK. Any nursery or field planting fertiliser should contain a full range of trace elements. The Importance of Slow Release of having a High Analysis Since the nutrient is being released slowly it is critical for a slow release fertiliser to have a concentrated formula. Additional phosphate in conventional form is easy and cheap to add to soil mixes. Phosphate is least likely to leach. So the P content can be relatively low in relation to the N & K. Goldencote can be produced to your own specific formula for the NPK as well as trace elements. The minimum order for Special Formulae is just 7 tonne. We welcome your enquiries. Granules allow even distribution of fertilisers through the potting media or around the plant. Tablets are not suitable for oil palm due to the direct connection of groups of roots to individual fronds. Tablets encourage Root Balling, which can cause severe problems after planting in the field. Granules use a more sophisticated method of controlling release. |
