Soil amendments Part I

Soil amendments are materials which are worked into the soil to enhance the soil’s properties.  Examples would include organic matter such as compost, manure, bone meal or leaf mold,  as well as synthetic fertilizers. There are several reasons soil amendments might be recommended for your garden or lawn: 1) Often soil is low in organic matter, necessary for the structure, water retention and life of your soil.  2) You might also add amendments to alter the soil's pH.  3) Amendments are also excellent for lightening clay or rocky soil and adding substance to sandy soils.

Secondary and Micronutrients For VEGETABLES AND FIELD CROPS

Plant nutrients in fertilizers are classified as major nutrients and micronutrients.  The most important. Major  nutrients are nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K).  Plants require these nutrients in relatively  large amounts,  and these are the nutrients most likely to be deficient for plant growth.  The other major  nutrients, also called secondary nutrients, are calcium (Ca),  magnesium (Mg) and sulfur (S).  They are  also required in relatively large amounts but are less likely to be deficient.  Micronutrients are essential  for plant growth, but plants require relatively small amounts of them.  They include boron (B), copper (Cu),  iron (Fe),manganese (Mn), molybdenum (Mo) and zinc (Zn). These elements may also be referred to as  minor or trace elements, but “micronutrients” is preferred. Calcium Deficiency Symptoms Calcium deficiency is usually observed as a failure of terminal buds and apical root tips to develop. In corn, new leaves fail to emerge from t

Effect of trace elements on Leafy vegetables

图片
The significant role of plants in both cycling of trace elements and contaminating the food chain has been well illustrated for various ecosystems.  Plants can accumulate trace elements, especially heavy metals, in or on their tissues due to their great ability to adapt to variable chemical properties of the environment, thus plants are intermediate reservoirs through which trace elements from soils, and partly from waters and air, move to man and animals. Leafy vegetables are regarded as group whose leaves and stems are eaten as vegetables.They also have an abundance of vitamins and minerals within them. The primary minerals present in green vegetables are magnesium, iron, calcium, potassium, vitamins C, E and K amongst others. Studies have shown that leafy vegetables have greater potential of accumulating heavy metals in their edible parts than grain or fruit crops as fruits and seeds have low transpiration rates.

Boron Amino Acids Chelates-increase in flower differentiation and fruit setting

Currently biostimulants products occupy big market in agricultural field all over the world. In recent two years, our company devoted to developing and researching AMINO ACIDS , AMINO ACIDS FORMULATIONS, and AMINO ACIDS CHELATES. Last 18th-20th of March, during the 13th New AG conference in New Delhi, Dr. Arpad Philip made a very interesting presentation on the subjest:"Boron Amino acid chelates improving plant fertility." Dr. Philiop showed that amino acids are able to form chelates with a large number of ions (Copper, Iron, Manganese, Zinc, Calcium, Magnesium) and also with Boron. The advantages are the natural source of the chelates and quick uptake through the leaves and the roots, even if the metal chelates is contained in little quantity. For instance, Protifert Boron contains only 0.3~0.5% of B (and therefore is not classified as hazardous) and has showed significantly increase in flower differentiation and fruit setting of tomato plants.

PGA in Seed dressing

SEED DRESSING WITH PGA The water solution of PGA has better moisture-holding and releasing ability and is more effective in fighting a drought and keeping a full stand of seedings. Mixing PGA,with seeds dressing  and using water saturated PGA,as antistaling material,will increase the germination percentage of the seeds,and prolonge the freshness-keeping period of cutting flower. PGA can increase photosynthesis, increase fruit pigment accumulation,   make crops bright in color. In soil water swellable ventilation without being dissolved, so that the seeds germinate properly, so the slow release of pesticides and fertilizers, having to kill soil pests, prevent seed germs, improve seed germination rate, reduce the amount of seed use, improved crop varieties. Seed close to the seed, the drug concentration, high efficiency, and thus save more than spray, soil treatment method of drug administration, labor, save species.

Dora Cotton Fertilizer

This Amino acids Formulation is specifically designed for cotton, breaking through one way  regulator symptomatic application techniques, coordinating a variety of physiological processes,  dealing with various problems in cotton growing period, to increase the yield and improve economic efficiency.  Effect   1. Protect roots and cultivate strong seedlings, make directional shaping, enhance anti-drought and anti-flood ability to promote pollination. Boost early buds occurrence, and more flowering, effectively prevent the occurrence of Fusarium and Verticillium Wilt. 2. Darken the leaves color, and shorten plan height, control flouring, increase flowering and fruit setting, prevent abscission. Turn vegetative growth into reproductive growth rapidly. Promote the formation of lateral branch. Increase the density of cotton shoots and effectively prevent the occurrence of Fusarium and Verticillium Wilt. 3. Increased buds and flowers, quick and large fruit setting,
