FoliMAX NRG-NK Turf Fertiliser

FoliMAX NRG-NK is a unique liquid, balanced nitrogen and potassium turf fertiliser. 50% of the nitrogen in the fertiliser is in the form of a new generation SRN-IQ technology which maximises foliar uptake and nutrient utilisation processes within the plant.

The potassium component of FoliMAX NRG-NK is in the form of a citrate/carbonate complex which provides rapid availability of K to the plant. The formulation also contains iron for enhanced green up and fertiliser response.

Key benefits of FoliMAX NRG-NK

• Turf specific fertiliser, researched and developed purely for turf purposes.
• Contains SRN-IQ technology for improved plant utilisation and prolonged plant growth.
• The SRN-IQ technology provides rapid delivery of nitrogen into the plant.
• Dual forms of potassium, maximises nutrient availability via both the foliage and soil.
• Iron for enhanced green up and fertiliser response.
• Excellent tank mix versatility. Highly compatible with many other fertilisers and chemicals.
• Very low risk of phytotoxicity due to its low salt index, even on immature turf.
• Excellent flexibility in application rates, allowing you to better optimise your nutrition program.
• Non-corrosive formulation. Will not damage spray equipment.

The potassium citrate/carbonate complex explained

The potassium in FoliMAX NRG-NK is present as a citrate/carbonate complex. Having dual forms of potassium optimises availability of the nutrient, both via the leaf and the soil. The potassium citrate component provides a citrate molecule which is found in all plants, and this form of potassium is immediately recognised and assimilated by the plant maximising leaf uptake. The potassium carbonate form is ideal for plant uptake in the soil environment and also has the additional benefits of enhancing disease resistance properties within the turfgrass plant.

Low salt index of potassium sources

Higher salt index fertilisers have a greater potential to cause foliar burn. The lower the salt index the lower the potential for phytotoxicity. Both Potassium Carbonate and Potassium citrate have very low salt index and as a result, FoliMAX NRG-NK has a very low potential for foliar burn after application.

What is SRN-IQ technology and what does it do?

The SRN-IQ Nitrogen technology is a true liquid, clear urea-formaldehyde solution which has an oily, resinous quality. The SRN-IQ Nitrogen technology has a linear molecular structure, which allows it to be more compact than other slow release nitrogen technologies, and therefore provides it with significantly improved foliar uptake capabilities.

• Rapid plant uptake
• Slow release nitrogen
• Enhanced soil activity

What is Nutrex^TM Delivery Technology and how does it work?

Nutrex™ Delivery Technology is a novel technology designed to enhance foliar uptake of liquid nutrition products and optimise internal mobility of the applied nutrient. This vastly improves the efficiency of applications of fertilizer formulations containing the Nutrex™ Delivery Technology, resulting in minimal nutrient loss and optimum plant response.

• Enhanced uptake and nutrient delivery to the plant’s vascular system.
• Integrated surfactant package for optimised surface spreading, further enhancing foliar uptake.
• Natural humectants within the formulation prolong drying time on the leaf to extend the uptake window.
• Improves internal mobility of applied nutrients, getting the nutrient to where it needs to be faster, and with less expense of energy to the plant.
• Provides a source of energy to the plant as the carbohydrate is metabolised internally.
