Actualités de l'entreprise Potassium nitrate – the best source of potassium for plants
Unlike other potassium fertilizers, Multi-K™ potassium nitrate contains only elements which are essential for plant growth - potassium (K+), and nitrogen in the form of nitrate (NO3-). Thus, it is consumed by plants completely, leaving no contaminating residues in the soil.
The synergy between the potassium cation and the nitrate anion facilitates uptake of both by the roots, allowing the plant to utilize the nutrients more efficiently.
Multi-K™ counteracts uptake of harmful chloride and sodium from the soil and the irrigation water, thus preventing both salinity and specific toxicity damages. Multi-K™ is highly recommended for salt-sensitive crops, and when using irrigation water of poor quality.
When using fertilizers with a high salt index, extra irrigation is required to remove the salts and prevent harmful build-up of salinity. Due to its low salt index, Multi-K™ eliminates the need for irrigation, and saves water.
