See detailed recommendations on the following pages All the recommendations in this booklet should be considered as a general guide only. The exact rates, timing and mode of application should be determined according to specific crop needs, soil and water conditions and the growers experience. Consult Haifa agronomist to suit the optimal fertilization program for your needs.
3. Protected crops
3.1 Introduction
Traditionally, protected crops employ liquid fertilizers or fertilizer solutions. In most cases, water is applied in excess, in order to leach the medium and prevent salt buildup. But the water surplus also contains the fertilizer materials, which are thereby leached and lost. THE SOLUTION: application of fertilizer that will not be leached, and that is independent of the irrigation system.
4. Fruit trees
4.1 Introduction
In large orchard areas, manpower is often a limiting factor. There is an obvious advantage to the use of fertilizer that requires only one application per season. When new groves are planted, controlled-release fertilizers provide the nutrients necessary for good establishment, without any risk of toxicity or scorching. Multigro is highly recommended for young groves during the first four years of growth. Multigro supports balanced, even development of the trees.
5. Arable crops
5.1 Introduction: CotN products
Arable crops (mainly grains) are often grown on soils that have a certain capacity to retain nutrients. The seasonal portions of phosphorus and potassium are applied as base-dressing. Nitrogen, however, is more mobile in the soil. To make up for losses during the season, it is usually applied in considerably excessive rates. CoteN products provide nitrogen in a controlled release form, protected from leaching and consumed by the crop in the most efficient manner. A single application of CoteN, either immediately before or just after sowing, provides all the nutrition required throughout the season.
CoteN
Polymer-coated urea - a rich source of nitrogen. Recommended for crops with high nitrogen requirements
CoteN Mix
Polymer-coated urea and readily available nutrients Recommended for cases where soil can retain nutrients to some extent, or when large quantities of nitrogen are required at the beginning of the season. CoteN and CoteN Mix products areavailable with release longevities of 2months or 4 months
