BioActive ProloNg® Autumn High K 10-0-30
Nitrogen Efficiency Fertilizer
- BioActive ProloNg® fertilisers are formulated to overcome the problem of loss of applied nitrogen (N) by volatilisation, denitrification and subsequent leaching while building soil microbial communities. We have BioActive ProloNg® for all sports turf applications. The results from these powerfully nourishing products are the best pitches, greens and courses. Turf shows excellent health, recovery and resilience to stress, drought and pathogens.
- Researchers estimate up to 50% of nitrogen applied worldwide is lost to the environment rather than utilised by plants. The naturally occurring enzyme ‘urease’ works to break down urea into a form that can volatilise causing a loss of nitrogen. Leaching of nitrate can also be a significant loss and damaging to the environment. BioActive ProloNg® uses technology that actively shields and manages nitrogen in the soil at molecular level. The shield prevents the action of urease on applied nitrogen and slows nitrification. This allows the plant improved access to stable forms of nitrogen throughout the growing season and without destroying the spectrum of naturally occurring soil bacteria and enzymes. BioActive ProloNg® technology is biodegradable, water soluble and leaves no adverse environmental footprint.
- BioActive ProloNg®, by preventing nitrification, eliminates lush plant uptake of nitrates. This results in less flushes of unwanted growth, reduction in soft tissue (stored protein in leaves) and therefore reduced disease susceptibility. BioActive ProloNg® manages nitrogen increasing nitrogen use efficiency, enabling prolonged availability of applied nitrogen and ensuring root zone bio-diversity is maintained.
