OCP HUMIC 18
OCP HUMIC 18 is an excellent source of liquid humic acids and potassium which helps improve soil structure, cation exchange capacity, moisture absorption and general water holding capacity. Humic acids are effective at buffering soil against salts and other conditions that can impact on soil health and crop yields.
- Improves soil fertility for better use of applied nutrients
- Reduces nutrient leaching
- Improves ability of soil to exchange nutrients
- Buffers against negative effects of soil pH and salinity
- Improves irrigation water percolation
Active Ingredient: Humates and fulvates derived from Leonardite plus 1.8% Potassium
OCP HUMIC 18 is a convenient liquid humic product based on leonardite suitable for vegetables, field crops, perennial crops and turf. Soil fertility relies on the continuous cycling of the dead organic plant material to facilitate the release of nutrients and production of humic substances which are the “glue” that holds the soil system together and provides the key components for sustaining soil fertility. In intensive food production systems the breakdown of residual plant matter is much slower than natural systems so OCP HUMIC 18 provides a top-up of this essential organic substance.
| Situation | Rate | Critical Comments |
|---|---|---|
| Vegetable & other field crops | 5-10L/ha | At time of crop flowering, tuber set or heart formation (4-6 weeks later) or with soil fertiliser applications. |
| Perennial crops | 5-10L/ha | Apply via drip irrigation just after budburst or first flush or prior to liquid soil applied fertiliser. |
| Turf establishment – Seeding, Sodding, Stolonizing | 2L/100kg of seed | Seeding: Mix 2L of product and spray on the seeds and mix well. Spread seed out to dry if it appears to be wet. Sodding, Stolonizing: Apply as a drench with other liquid starter fertilisers at 2L/1000m2 immediately after planting. |
| Turf maintenance – Boom spray or through irrigation system | 20L/ha | Apply with normal spraying equipment. Jet size should be bigger than 60 meshes (0.25mm). In order for the product to reach the root zone, the treated area needs to be irrigated after the application. The product can be injected into irrigation systems using a “Dosatron” or similar fertiliser injector equipment. |
OCP HUMIC 18 can be mixed with common plant protection products and fertilisers, but a jar compatibility test is recommended before mixing with other fertilisers.
