ICL’s patented innovative technologies make our foliar fertilisers some of the world’s leading foliar solutions. Our state-of-the-art foliar fertilisers use advanced technologies to facilitate nutrient absorption and enhance the delivery of nutrients.
The high purity of the nutrients in our foliar fertilisers and the range of nutrients available, including N, P, K, and trace elements, our foliar fertilisers equip you with the perfect tools to prevent and rectify nutrient deficiencies. Foliar fertilisers can also counter stress conditions where plant root systems are not functioning optimally or where nutrition from the soil is malfunctioning. Stresses such as cold or warm soils, high pH levels, weed competition, or nematode infestation can all impact the efficiency of plant root systems. Foliar fertilisers are an ideal tool to mitigate such stress situation.
Whether you are looking to complete the base fertiliser application in cereal crops or prevent or rectify deficiencies in agricultural and horticultural crops, our foliar fertilisers are the perfect solution.
Frequently asked questions regarding foliar feeding:
How does Foliar feeding stimulate growth?
It serves as an effective supplementary feeding to complete soil fertilisation and correction of nutrient deficiencies. Foliar fertilisers absorb much faster into the leaves compared the roots system, in this way there is effectiveness of absorption of nutrients that effect the health and productivity of the plant
Is Foliar Fertiliser an adequate substitute for more conventional fertiliser treatments?
No, foliar fertiliser complete soil fertilisation and in specific stages of crop development it boosts yield and improve quality.
How does the application timing and amounts affect efficacy?
Different crop stages can be critical to determine what will be the total production. By using foliar fertilisers we can precisely provide the amount of nutrients for each specific stage, matching the different nutrition demands of a variety of crops.
What are common application methods for foliar fertilisers?
Spray high volume by spraying from the ground, low -medium volume by crop duster (air plan) and low volume by drones.
What are common uses of foliar fertilisers?
To provide nutrient demands fast and effectively. When there is no need to fertigate/irrigate, or when the roots system is limited because low temperatures, soil disease, or nematodes.
Which trace elements are important for fruit and vegetable crops?
Usually, trace elements will be chosen according to soil type and test. Zinc (corn rice..), Copper, iron, molybdenum, Ca(apples), boron, Mg.
How to diagnose trace element deficiencies?
Basically, trace element deficiency will appear in younger leaves. Mg and Ca are considered secondary macro-elements. Mg deficiency will appear on old leaves and Ca on young and fruits. Different crops will show different symptoms.
How many applications are needed?
According to foliar program for each crop. Please ask your agronomist or fertiliser specialist.
Can I combine different brand of foliar fertilisers or from the same brand?
It is advised not to mix different brands. Compatibility should be thoroughly tested if the grower would like to combine, and it is their responsibility. Before spraying on all plot, the farmer should test phytotoxicity on number of plants.
It is possible to mix with pesticides?
Usually yes, but it should be tested before spraying on the field, to avoid sedimentation and blocked jet.
