Novel’s Potassium Schoenite is a double Sulfate of potassium & Magnesium. It is composed of 22.24% Potassium Oxide and 90% Magnesium Oxide.
Potassium Schoenite is a unique source of plant nutrition since three essential nutrients are naturally combined in to one mineral. It provides a readily available supply of Potassium, Magnesium and Sulfur to growing plants in an ideal ratio. It has an advantage of having all nutrient contained within a single particle, which helps provide a uniform distribution of nutrients when it is spread in the field.
Potassium Schoenite is readily water soluble and immediately available to plants. It has a neutral pH, and does not contribute to soil acidity or alkalinity. This makes it differ from other common sources of magnesium (such as dolomite) which will increase soil pH and from elemental sulfur or ammonium sulfatewhich will lower the soil pH.
It is effective on all soil types, irrespective of pH. Usually, it is useful for all crops for faster & healthy growth.
Advantages
- Provides Balance Of Nutrients: The deficiency of any essential nutrients limits crop yields & crop quality, even when all other nutrients are present in adequate amounts. It supplies K, Mg and S in a balanced proportion that fits the nutrient needs of many crops.
- Neutral Soil pH: Regardless of application rate, it does not change soil pH because it is a neutral salt.
- Increases Profit Per Acre: Higher crop production can be measured in yield as it increase the grain fill, colour, weight, firmness, size and general appearance that exponentially increase the value and profitability of any given crop.
- Act as natural chelator for metal ions under alkaline conditions and promote their uptake by the roots.
- Retain water soluble inorganic fertilizers in the root zones and reduce their leaching.
