Faced with the rising cost of fertiliser in the agricultural sector, the use of high concentration and slow release fertiliser products has increased. This is pointed out by Vicente Puchol, manager and technical director of EDYPRO, who explains that this growing trend is motivated by the fact that “it has been scientifically proven that crops can be grown with less fertiliser use, generating investment savings and a more sustainable crop“.
The two product groups most in demand due to this situation are:
- Soil and/or water regenerators and conditioners optimise soil fertility and achieve a more efficient use of fertilisers. They also improve the behaviour of water in the soil, allowing a more rational use of water and important benefits for the crop by avoiding root asphyxia problems.
- Fertilisers with high concentration and excellent assimilation at low application rates. These products satisfy the needs of the crop in certain macro and micro nutrients with small contributions in L/ha.
EDYPRO, a company dedicated to the study, development and production of biotechnological fertilisers, counts among its product portfolio biotechnological solutions in both categories.
COUPÉ REGENERATION PLUS is a soil structure regenerator designed to restore soil fertility by reactivating the microbial flora of the soil with its prebiotic effect. It activates cation exchange, making nutrients available to the plant so that it can assimilate them according to its physiological needs.
EDYPRO HUMECTANTE improves the behaviour of water in the soil, generating a wide bulb in a horizontal direction that allows the humidity to be maintained in the upper layers of the soil, where the plant makes better use of the water, thus achieving significant water savings.
As for high concentration fertilisers, EDYFOS, HORTIGROS, CA-FRUIT, NITROPLUS, FER POTASIUM meet these characteristics and obtain great results with low application rates.
