Kali‑T OP is activated by Oligo Prime®, an innovative biostimulant technology that allows for quick absorption and translocation of nutrients and reinforces the plant’s natural defenses against abiotic stresses (drought, low temperature, salinity, etc.). It is indicated for every crop and it must be applied based on soil or tissue analyses or as soon as deficiency symptoms appear or if stress risk is high. For more information on Kali‑T OP, consult your agronomic adviser.
Kali‑T OP contains five forms of potassium. About 70% of the potassium in Kali‑T OP is in the form of potassium hydroxide and potassium carbonate, two forms of potassium that are more easily absorbed by the leaves and the least phytotoxic.
Potassium increases photosynthetic activity and intervenes in water regulation mechanisms. It is an indispensable nutrient for protein formation and the synthesis and transport of sugars. It serves as an activator in cell breathing and in many enzymes. It also facilitates calcium and magnesium assimilation. Potassium optimizes plant resistance in situations of stress. Kali‑T OP reinforces the effects of potassium by including silicates and carbonates. Silicates serve to strengthen cell walls (physical barrier against diseases, drought tolerance) and stimulate the plant’s defense mechanism against abiotic stresses. By increasing the pH on the surface of the leaf, carbonates create an environment less conducive to the establishment of fungal diseases such as speckle, monilia, and iodium.
The nitrogen contained in Kali‑T OP is in ureic form, which provides it with high cuticle penetration capability. This attribute contributes to the optimal foliar absorption of potassium and to other foliar products applied jointly.
Kali-T OP can be used on a variety of crops according to agronomic recommendations and the specific needs of the fields.
