SOFTrockphos
SOFTrockphos is an Australian source of apatite-derived phosphorus. It is uniquely formulated with a range of nutrients to replenish the soil, enhance a plant’s ability to produce and store energy and attract and store the ionic minerals and nutrients it needs for growth and production.
Most Australian soils are naturally low in phosphorus and unsuitable for sustained crop and pasture production. To achieve maximum returns, growers must apply phosphorus fertilisers to achieve productive yields.
SOFTrockphos is a silicon material that increases the soil’s cation exchange capacity, enabling the soil to hold more positively charged nutrients like calcium, potassium, magnesium and trace elements. This igneous calcium phosphate rock has high levels of minerals containing phosphate and is also referred to as rock phosphate or phosphate rock.
Benefits of SOFTrockphos
High in phosphorus 16%
High in calcium 33%
Exceptional trace element levels
Long lasting - controlled release
Low in heavy metal contaminants - extremely low in cadmium less than 0.5ppm
Additional nutrients may be added to suit your crop or soil or may be added to compost, fertiliser blends or seed mixes
Belt spreads onto soils in agriculture and horticulture
Cost effective – offers an affordable alternative to expensive inorganic phosphates
Remains in soil – stays in the soil until used by the plants without leaching supporting soil bacteria and earthworms.
