Features & Benefits

Agrochemicals Features: Good Roots Growth,
Improved Water Infiltration Into Soils ,
Improves Flocculation,
Improves Plant Growth,
Maximum Plant Uptake,
Salinity Resistant
Product Highlights: Carboxylic (-COOH) and hydroxylic (-OH) groups present in ECOSALT® play an important role in calcium transfer to colloidal soil particles, preventing and correcting salinisation and solidification effects.

Main effects:

Physical effects: Flocculation. Increases porosity and water penetration.

Chemical effects: Decreases sodium from colloidal fraction. Increases exchangeable fraction of calcium. Stabilizes soil pH.

Biological effects: Improves germinations. Promotes root growth and development. Increases calcium availability and block toxic ions.
Plant Growth Inhibition: Saline Soil

Conductivity > 4 mmhos/cm.

% Exchangeable sodium < 15 Toxicity caused by disolved ions.

Sodium Soil

Conductivity < 4 mmhos/cm.

% Exchangeable sodium > 15 Colloids formation (compaction) Alkalinity increment.

Low permeability and poor aeration.

Germination reduction/root development. Traze elements become insoluble.
