Potassium Nitrate has proved to be an ideal fertilizer to both :
- Fertigation as regular K source
- Foliar spray as additional K source (Less risk of plant injury by scorching / burning)
- Potassium Nitrate has Nitrate Nitrogen content which has proved best for fertilization for all most all the crops
BENEFITS
- Nitrogen in Nitrate form which is readily available for uptake of plants
- Due to its high K20 contents it helps in longer shelf life & also strengthening immunity to plants and also water stress condition
- Helps in increasing yield and quality
- It is free form chlorine contents, it has low salt index
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR FOLIAR SPRAYS
Crops | gms/100 Ltr. | water Stages of Spray. |
---|---|---|
Tomatoes, Chillies, Brinjal | 200 – 300 | 1 – 2 sprays up to flowring stage. |

Rice, Wheat, Maize, etc. | 300 – 400 | 2 – 3 Sprays during growth stage. |
Note : Our recommendation as per our trials. However, dosages and application will depend on soil analysis and crop growth stages.
Caution : Best time of spray is early morning or during evening hours when temperature are low do not spray during drought or water stress or diseased conditions.
Compatibility : It is compatibility with commonly used insecticides, fungicides / Except Bordaux & plant growth promoters & regulations.
For Fertigation : It can be used in different fertigation systems Potassium contents of fertigation solution should be in between 200 – 400 ppm K to the water means adding 0.25 gm potassium Nitrate per liter of water.
