Features
  • VEGAND® give nitrogen, phosphor, potassium and vegetal carbon supply for plant nutrition. Components characteristics and the composition of the product, in synergy with soil M.O. determines a good decay of the pellets, permitting a good absorption of macronutrients, available for crops in a longer period after distribution.
  • VEGAND® improve soil porosity and support soil structure, giving a good soil stability. The nitrogen supply of the product, allowed longer terms of nitrogen release forwarding all crop necessities without nitrogen loses.
  • VEGAND® is recommend for vegetable and flower crops cultivated in green house, public green areas and flowerbeds. The product present a good odor compared with traditional organic fertilizers, avoiding any problem related to the application of the product in public areas.
  • VEGAND® present a very low relative humidity.
  • VEGAND® do not content industrial waste, urban waste and garden pruning residues.
