Other
Elemental Sulphur NPK and Micronutrients Formulation Opportunities
Other Nitrogen, Phosphate, Potash (NPKs) and micronutrient
formulations are possible by using sulphur as a carrier for
other materials. NPKs and micronutrient metals can be emulsified
into the liquid sulphur batch tank and formed with the Omni-Drop process.
Omni Agri Fertilizer
(www.omniagri-tg.com)
formulates a variety of Zinc, Manganese, Copper, Iron and
a variety of micronutrient mixes using this process. The net
result is an extremely uniform, low heavy metal, agronomically
sound product that is a leader in its field.
For example, sugar cane growers in south Florida use a prescription
blend of zinc, manganese, copper and iron to satisfy both
their micronutrient needs as well as their sulphur needs,
all in a product that delivers nutrients the plants over the
entire growing season without the concern of leaching losses
and groundwater contamination.
