34
Q

Which of our products contain Amino Acids?

A

Fourtiplex
Dynamic Iron
Link K24

35
Q

Why are Amino Acids beneficial for plants

Potassium Acetate

39
Q

Why is Potassium Acetate beneficial to plants?

A

It’s THE MOST available form of potassium on the market. It contains complexed amino acids that are immediately taken up by the plant.

  • It helps to move water through the plant
40
Q

What is Till-it Elematic?

A

a micronutrient granule

41
Q

What is Versatile Iron Shield?

What is in it?

42
Q

What is beneficial about Acetate being used at the carrier for the Potassium in Dynamic Iron and Fourtiplex?

A

The Potassium has an Organic-Based carrier, the Acetate Molecule. Acetate is a natural plant metabolite which makes it more rapidly and readily taken up by plants which in turn leads to increased potassium use efficiency and higher productivity.

43
Q

Acetate: What does it do besides being a carrier for K in our products?

A
  • Acetate is a very important part of signaling compounds between the plant and Beneficial Soil Microbes and Mycorrhizal Fungi
  • It provides a base for which many plant compounds are formed, including: fatty acids, phenolic acids, amino acids, chlorophyll and carotenoids.
44
Q

What about Potassium Acetate makes it safe to apply as a foliar application.

A

It has a very low salt index, therefore a low burn potential.
