Features and Benefits
- Improves the soil structure, soil texture and water holding capacity
- Increases the level of organic matter and humus in the soil, which has many beneficial effects on the soil and crops
- Supplies organic carbon, small quantities of NPK and sufficient quantities of micronutrients.
RECOMMENDATION
- 200 – 500 kg/ acre as Basal for all crops
- Tree crops: 2 – 5 kg/ tree.
