Nitrogen is one of the most important elements of plant mineral nutrition.
The functions of nitrogen in plant metabolism are diverse, but they can be grouped into 3 main directions:
- participation in the synthesis of phytohormones.
- participation in the synthesis of protein substances;
- participation in the formation of reserve substances in the harvest.
Nitrogen can enter the soil from the atmosphere - during thunderstorms, due to nitrogen fixation by microorganisms and the application of nitrogen-containing fertilizers.
– Regardless of the origin of nitrogen, its oxidized forms NO3 NO2 NO are quite mobile and can be lost through washing and washing deep into the soil profile, and also return to the atmosphere under the action of microorganisms. This phenomenon is called denitrification.
The scale of unproductive losses of nitrogen is huge and can reach from 12 to 40%.
The main question: How to reduce non-productive losses of this extremely important power element? The answer is clear - a balanced ratio of nutrients and the use of nitrification inhibitors!
Nitrification inhibitor from the company ECOORGANIC POLIACTIVE N-BOOST
POLIACTIVE N - Boost fertilizer contains special polymer forms of organic substances that join nitrogen ions in the fertilizer, forming a shell that protects nitrogen from evaporation or denitrification.
N - Boost protects nitrogen at the molecular level, reducing the availability of trace elements Nickel, Copper, Iron for soil bacteria. The protection period can last up to 10 weeks.
The effectiveness of N-Boost depends on soil temperature and moisture, which affects the time during which nitrogen remains protected and available to plants.
Main functions:
- Keeps nitrogen in ammonium form
- Reduces unproductive losses of nitrogen
- Improves nitrogen absorption by 10 - 20%
- Contributes to an increase in yield from +5%
- Minimizes the possible impact of nitrogen fertilizers on the environment
N - Boost is recommended to be used at a temperature of 10-15°C, simultaneously with the introduction of liquid nitrogen fertilizers at the rate of 0.5% of the volume of the tank mixture for all crops.
