Application rates and advice
Application rates are typically 200-800 kg/ha. 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.
The even granule size ensures superb blending properties with other fertilisers. The solubility of Patentkali is also similar to that of other NPK fertilisers, ensuring a balanced nutrient supply is provided.
As with most solid fertilisers, Patentkali can be stored over a season as long as it is kept in a cool, dry, well ventilated area. Store bags in a dry place ensuring they are tightly sealed.
