NUTRI-BLEND™ inoculated with living beneficial bacteria and fungi are proving successful in addressing the soil microbial imbalances commonly found. The humic acid release from the NUTRI-BLEND™ provides a host and food source for microbial life to release soil phosphorus, calcium, all other nutrients and fast track soil humus production.

Benefits include: Biologically active carbon source. Rapid improvement in soil structure and fertility Fertiliser costs reduced to half after 2 to 3 seasons of similar cost to common practice Large increases in soil plant available phosphorus Large increases in soil organic matter levels Builds plant immunity to many crop diseases Re-introduce beneficial soil fungi to rebuild soil levels

* Nutri-Cal™ Dry Soluble Calcium

One tonne of Nutri-Cal is produced from the firing of 100 tonnes of humates. The resulting concentrate provides immediately available sources of calcium, magnesium, sulphur, iron and trace elements. There is no other, dry, non-soluble fertiliser that can provide these ‘fast food' characteristics!

One tonne of Nutri-Cal Dry Soluble per hectare provides the equivalent of 100 litres of liquid humus acid in the form of a slow-release, powdered humate. The humates are included to chelate the calcium and the magnesium in Nutr0Cal, to stabilise the highly leachable sulphate and boron components, and to magnify the uptake of all the nutrients in the product.

Nutri-Cal includes 320 ppm of boron (3.2kg in every tonne). Boron should always to included with calcium to ensure maximum performance to both elements.

Ag-lime can take up to two years to release its calcium lode – Available calcium is the single most important nutrient, as this element governs the availability of all other elements so.. if calcium is required immediately, Nutri-Cal is the solution!

• Slow release nitrogen source – plants benefit from pre-plant application throughout the whole season.
• Provides a more stable source of nitrogen making Sulphate of Ammonia a more economically sensible option.
• Provides nitrogen in the ammonia form, which promotes a fruiting (yield) response in the plant, not just a growth response.
• Sulphur readily reaches – Sulphate of Ammonia provides a significant amount of this valuable nutrient.
• 21% nitrogen, 24% sulphur.

* Sulphate Trace Elements

• Sulphate form trace elements build soil levels with progressive application – particularly when complexed with humates and microbial activity
• Oxide from trace elements, although cheaper and more soluble, will not build soil levels with progressive application.
• Sulphate form trace elements also provide a valuable sulphur input.
• Zinc Sulphate, Copper Sulphate, Magnesium Sulphate, Manganese Sulphate, Potassium Sulphate, Cobalt Sulphate, Ferrous (Iron) Sulphate are all available.
• Sulphate elements have demonstrated the ability to raise soil levels in conjunction with Life-Force® Programs.
