NovAcid is a specialty line of fully water-soluble, acidifying NPK fertilizers. NovAcid guarantees a balanced nutrient supply, which delivers better yield and quality. The various analyses are ideal for drip-irrigated vegetables, fruit trees, and arable crops. Drip irrigation enhances water and nutrient use efficiency and significantly reduces nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions compared to furrow and sprinkler irrigation systems. The acidic nature of NovAcid makes it especially suitable for calcareous soils and hard waters, improving nutrient availability. NovAcid reduces the pH of irrigation water, preventing precipitation and keeping irrigation systems clean.

How to calculate dosage
Example: To prepare a 1:20 working solution for 100 L of water, divide 100 L by 20. This gives you 5, meaning you’ll need 5 kg of fertilizer for 100 L of water.
Example: To prepare a 1:15 working solution for 150 L of water, divide 150 L by 15. This gives you 10, meaning you’ll need 10 kg of fertilizer for 150 L of water.
