Properties
The synergy between the cation (K+) and the anion (NO3-) facilitates the uptake of both ions by the plant roots.
The affinity between the negatively charged nitrate and the positively charged potassium prevents adsorption of potassium to soil particles, making it available to plants for a longer time.
NOP helps crops build stronger cell walls, therefore increasing the plants resistance to pathogenic factors.
It improves the ability of the plants to resist to drought.
NOP is composed of white crystals and does not cake under normal storage conditions.
Packing
25 KG, 50 KG, 1000 KG, 1250 KG bag and OEM color bag.
The MOQ of OEM color bag is 300 tons. Neutral packing with more flexible quantity required.
The product is transported by container ship to different harbours and can then be delivered directly to customers. Handling is therefore kept to a minimum, going from production plant to end-user in the most efficient way.
Usage
NOP can be mixed with all other type of water-soluble fertilizers and does not contain any element harmful to the plants. NOP is an ideal source of potassium, very versatile, it can be applied in any phenological stage of any crop.
In K deficient crops or in critical phenological phases NOP can provide a quick K source to solve the deficiency via foliar application.
On foliar application it should be applied from 0.5 to 3% according to the age of the leaves,The sensibility of the crop and the weather, in cold weather the quantities can be higher.
As a general guidance, for sensible leaves in horticultural crops and flower production, the foliar application should be between 0.5 and 1% solution, for fruits it can go from 1.0 to 3.0% solution.
NOP can be dissolved at a maximum rate of 300 g per liter at 20ºC. NOP is produced with a maximum moisture content of 0.2%
Storage
Store in a cool, ventilated and dry house, away from moisture, heat or kindling.
Avoid mixing with organic compound or Sulphur or reducer during storage and transportation in case of explosion. Protect the material from the sun and rain during transportation. Carefully load and unload in case of crash.
