NovAcid 5-5-50

NovAcid is a specialty line of fully water-soluble, acidifying NPK fertilizers

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.

  • NovAcid’s acidity neutralizes and dissolves bicarbonates, preventing clogging of pipes and drippers

  • Extends the lifespan of irrigation systems

  • Uniform and efficient distribution of irrigation water and fertilizers

  • Increased nutrient availability in the soil solution, improving nutrient uptake by the plants

  • High K formula

  • Low in nitrogen, allowing full and independent control over the nitrogen in the fertigation program

  • Promotes environmental sustainability

  • Maximum solubility: 41 kg/100 L water (25°C)

  • EC value: 2.3 mS/cm (at 1 g/L)

  • pH value: 3.11 (at 10 g/L)

  • HCO3 reduction: 125.81 mg/L

  • Solution color: off white

  • Packaging: 25 kg bag (PE)

NovAcid 5-5-50 is recommended for the ripening stage, when demand for potassium is high.

Contact ICL or your professional advisor for specific advice or recommendations.

1
It is recommended to prepare a stock solution with a concentration of 10%-20% (follow the specific solubility limit of each formula).
2
Dissolving fertilizer salts is an endothermic process, so external energy is needed to stir and speed up the process.
3
Use hot water if possible.
4
Fill the stock tank with 50%-70% of water, then add the fertilizer, mixing the solution while adding the fertilizer.
5
Keep the fertilizer bags in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
6
Opened bags should be closed tightly to prevent caking.
7
Any concentrated fertilizer solution containing calcium cannot be mixed with a concentrate containing phosphate, unless the solution is highly acidic.
8
