Pretreat Yourself to a Better Investment

Position in the Field AVAIL: For growers worldwide who want to maximize their crops’ phosphorus fertilizer performance and investment, AVAIL is a phosphorus fertilizer enhancer proven to provide the strongest protection against phosphorus fixation/tie-up in the soil. NutriSphere-N: For growers worldwide wanting to maximize their nitrogen fertilizer performance and investment, NutriSphere-N (N-N) Nitrogen Fertilizer Manager is the most advanced nitrogen fertilizer stabilizer available. N-N is proven to protect nitrogen fertilizer from leaching, volatilization and denitrification.

Phosphorus Fertilizer Enhancer

Phosphate Fixation Crop recovery limited to 5-25% of applied phosphate fertilizer during the season of application (Mortvet, 1994) Fixation reactions in soils may only allow a small fraction (10-15%) of the phosphorus in fertilizers to be taken up by plants in the year of application. (Florida Institute of Phosphate Research)

AVAIL Characteristics An extremely high cation exchange capacity- approximately 1800 milliequivalents/ 100gms. Polymeric structure is very specific to attracting and adsorbing multivalent cations. Functionality is not affected by pH, temperature ranges or ionic strength. Biodegradable and water soluble.

Mg+ Al+ Ca+ Fe+ AVAIL Phosphorus (Neg Charge)-3

Increased phosphorus availability promotes higher yield potential. Phosphorus Fertilizer Enhancer AVAIL bonds with positive ions, keeping the phosphorus free and available to the crop all season. This protects negatively charged phosphorus molecules from forming attractive bonds with other ions in the soil. AVAIL creates a negatively charged shield around phosphorus molecules. Up to 75-95% of phosphorus fertilizer applied to the soil can be rendered unavailable to crops. Treated with AVAIL Untreated
