Contains soluble phosphate, potassium, calcium, and sulphur
Has both quick acting sulphate S & medium term release elemental S
Suitable type of fertiliser for mostly maintenance applications on pastoral soils
Potash Sulphur Super contains soluble phosphate, potassium, calcium, and sulphate S as well as elemental S and is a suitable type of fertiliser for mostly maintenance applications on pastoral soils.
Elemental S is slow release sulphur as it requires the action of Thiobacillus bacteria in soil to convert the elemental S to sulphate S. It thus suits infrequent application or soils with low ASC in high rainfall environments.
Uses
Potash Sulphur Super is most suited to hill and high country farms on sedimentary soils which require some potassium inputs and where either sulphate leaching is high or fertiliser application occurs on 2-3 yearly intervals rather than annually. Potash Sulphur Super is also suitable for pumice and peat soils.
Application rates and advice
Actual spreading rates will vary according to farm type, climate, productivity and soil type. Soil testing and fertiliser plans are available to ensure you use the right product at the correct rate. Call our Customer Centre for information.
As with most solid fertilisers, Potash Sulphur Super can be stored over a season as long as it is kept in a cool, dry, well ventilated area.
