    Many factors influence yield and quality and the nutrition used is one of them. While the nutritional
    input is actually only a small percentage of the total cost of production, it has a major effect.                                                                    FOLIAR FEED

    Just consider: minerals and nutrients use only 4% of the total weight of the plant, but they contribute
    hugely to the plant’s growth. So using the right nutrients is crucial for managing the yield and quality
    of your crop. No matter what application technique you use (foliar, drip or soil-applied), we offer
    nutritional solutions that fit your production system.

Controlled release fertilisers (CRF) play an important role in improving yield, reducing                                                                             Can also be applied on salt-sensitive crops thanks to low chloride and sodium
nutrient losses and simplifying fertiliser application. These products help to regulate the                                                                 4        formulas
