Importance of Nutrient Use Efficiency
Sustainable Future?
Much of the current farming practices is the use of inefficient fertilisers which add significant costs & losses to the farmer, soils, crops grown & environment. Nitrogen fertilisers are the biggest contributor to these environmental losses.
- N loss in the form of ammonia NH3 volatilization (ca. 11% of N-fertilizer application)
- Runoff and leaching (ca. 24% of N-fertilizer application)
- Nitrous oxide N2O emission (1% of N-fertilizer application).
A Solution
Launch®
A concentrated, complexed fertiliser catalyst containing organic acids, plant extracts, vitamins, non-ionic surfactants and bio-stimulants to promote nutrient cycling and increase plant production.
Creating Fertiliser Innovation
Launch® is composed on a base of long chain organic polymeric polyhydroxl acids. These compounds owe their activity to numerous highly reactive carboxyl and hydroxyl groups.
These compounds are colloidal in nature and are extremely hydrophilic. They are generally classed as tetrabasic anions with an extremely high pH dependent exchange capacity.
The effectiveness of these compounds as a nutrition catalyst is attributed to their enhancement of ion transfer, their enhancement of cell wall permeability, and their ability to stimulate microbial activity.
Your Benefits
- A combination of chemistries to hold nutrients in more useful forms and promotes their uptake and utilisation by the plant.
- Reduced waste and losses through volatilisation, leaching, and demineralisation increases gross margins.
- Greater biological activity in the soil promotes availability of both target and other tied up nutrients in the soil.
- Improved nutrient cycling reduces input costs through efficiency.
