NACHURS® Bio-K® is a premium source of potassium fertilizer combined with a natural plant metabolite creating the most effective and efficient source of potassium. Using Bio-K® technology results in quicker germination, improved root development, and an elevated abiotic stress tolerance; this leads to better plant establishment, more vigorous growth, and higher yields.
What makes Bio-K® unique is in the origination of its organic-based carrier (anion), the acetate molecule. Acetate is a natural plant metabolite that has many important functions within the plant as well as in the symbiotic relationship of plant roots, soil microbes, and mycorrhizal fungi.
It’s not so much about the use of potassium (as we agree it is an important farming practice), but rather the use of an efficient, available, and soluble potassium source to drive nutrient stewardship, sustainability, and yield.
- Features
- Acetate is a natural organic acid and plant metabolite
- Two influencers (potassium fertility and biostimulant) in a single product
- Very low salt index
- Excellent compatibility with other fertilizers
- Benefits
- Recognized by plants as a natural form of potassium playing an important function within the plant, forming many compounds necessary for increased productivity
- The preferred source of potassium for plant uptake due to the acetate carrier molecule – more efficient and readily absorbed by the plant
- Plant and seed safe – will not burn at recommended rates
- Blending and tank mixing flexibilit
