THE ADVANTAGES OF APPLYING AMINO ACID NPK FERTILIZER
The utilization rate of common nitrogen fertilizer in China is about 30%-35%. Phosphorus fertilizer is 10%-25%. Potash fertilizer is 35%-50%. In some regions, the utilization rate is even lower, which means that less than a third of the fertilizer applied to the soil is absorbed by the crop, and a considerable portion of it cannot be used and is wasted.

THE IMPORTANCE OF PHOSPHORUS FOR PLANTS
Phosphorus, both as a plant macro-nutrient and as a component of plant protection products is widely used in agriculture. The chemical formula of phosphorus and its concentration in each fertilizer and plant protection product is clearly defined on its label. However frequently, the terminology used confuses and misleads the consumer. Sometimes, in printed articles and commercial flyers, erroneous concepts are used regarding the form of phosphorus, or its concentration in the commercial product. This may be due to neglect, lack of understanding or intentional misleading for commercial reasons.

PROPER USE OF FERTILIZER SOLUTIONS
In order to avoid damages and ensure the safety of the operators the following rules should be followed. In case of doubt, feel free to consult with Gat fertilizers’ personnel.
Before applying the fertilizer, the grower should check the proper operation of the application equipment, and insure that the fertilizer’s characteristics are compatible with that of the equipment in order to avoid corrosion.

FERTILIZER APPLICATION METHODS
This is the most common method for the application of liquid fertilizer solutions and disolved solid water soluble fertilizers. The concentrated fertilizer solution is injected into the irrigation water, mixes with it and enters the soil during irrigation. This is the most efficient method for the fertilization of irrigated crops, specially for those irrigated with drippers, micro- jets and micro- sprinklers. A range of injection accessories is available for fertigation.

MICRO ELEMENT SOLUTIONS
In comparison to the more common fertilizer elements (N-P-K), only small amounts of micro-elements are required by each crop. Micro-elements are required for crop growth; for photo- synthesis and respiration; for the synthesis of enzymes; in the transport and transfer of molecules within the plant’s cells and tissues, and more. Micro- element deficiencies manifest themselves as changes in the tissue’s colour, as leaf spots, deformities in the plants’ organs and abnormal development: Small leaves, deformed leaves and fruit and short internodes.

ABOUT THE HUMATES
Soil includes organic and inorganic substances. The presence of soil organic matter (ORP) is the main feature that distinguishes it from the parent rock, and the quantity and nature of ORP largely determines the direction of soil formation processes, the genetic, biochemical, chemical and physical properties of soils and their fertility.
