Refa 13:40:13 is 100% water soluble fertilizer and chloride free. This Nitrogen phosphorous and potash proportionate for mutation is beneficial to all crops during pre and post flowering stages.13:40:13 is useful, being high phosphate formulation, for promoting root growth and also helps in flower and retention. Nitrogen and Potash contents of this fertilizer help in vegetative growth and potassium for fruit development (size and weight).

BENEFITS:
- 100 % water soluble, chloride free fertilizer
- Helps in flower initiation and retention
- Helps in root development through foliar spray and fertigation
- Benefits in nutrient (N:P:K) deficient crops
- Has low salt index and hence helps in better absorption of nutrients and its availability
- Non compatible with calcium nitrate and compatible with commonly used micro nutrients and pesticides (except Bordaux)
- Being low pH, it helps in better nutrient uptake through soil
