ICL PeKacid Technology: Optimizing Fertigation Systems & Enhancing Crop Nutrient Uptake
PeKacid technology improves the performance of irrigation and fertigation systems while boosting crop nutrient absorption. By reducing the pH of water, PeKacid prevents and clears calcium and magnesium deposits that can clog drippers and emitters, ensuring uniform water and fertilizer distribution across fields. This results in more efficient fertigation and enhanced crop growth.
Beyond maintaining irrigation systems, PeKacid also enhances nutrient availability, particularly in alkaline soils where nutrients like phosphorus and iron are often locked away. Lowering the pH around the root zone helps unlock these nutrients, making them more accessible to plants for optimal growth.
Key Benefits of PeKacid Technology:
- Reduces hard water pH, preventing clogging and ensuring efficient irrigation.
- Dissolves calcium and magnesium deposits, keeping drippers and pipes clear.
- Improves nutrient availability, especially in alkaline soils (pH >7).
- Decreases phosphorus-fixation in the rhizosphere and promotes uptake.
- Increases fertilizer efficiency by enhancing trace element uptake.
- Simplifies handling with a unique form of phosphoric acid for safer and easier application.
How to Use PeKacid:
ICL Nova PeKacid is available as a standalone crystalline product, enriched with potassium, and can be used with a wide range of Agrolution pHLow and NOVA products. It enhances fertilizer effectiveness while keeping fertigation systems clean and operational.

Agrolution pHLow is your one-stop fruit and vegetable fertilizer solution
Agrolution pHLow is an all-in-one water soluble nutritional package for high-value crop growers who battle high pH and high alkalinity in their irrigation water and/or their soils. Developed with a dual-purpose in mind, the extra acidifying effect creates a low pH in soil solution ensuring total nutrient availability is increased and nutritional elements evenly dissolve for a balanced, consistent feed. And because it’s acidic, all Agrolution pHLow’s nutritional elements dissolve more efficiently, even in hard water. ICL produces Agrolution pHLow from the purest natural ingredients and chelate all trace elements so Agrolution pHLow can safely deliver pure, essential nutrients and conveniently solve water quality problems with just one product. As a water-soluble fertigation fertilizer, our patented pHlow technology reduces stock solution pH allowing growers to neutralize highly alkaline irrigation water keeping vital nutirents from precipitating. It also neutralizes bicarbonates in alkaline irrigation water limiting “scale’ buildup in tanks, piping and emitters.
