How is it used
Dispersatom™ can be applied via Fertigation or directly. For applying the product correctly the following formula can be used.
(E.S.P. measured – E.S.P. required )x C.E.C.= L/Ha of Dispersatom™
*E.S.P.- exchangeable sodium percentage *C.E.C.- Cation Exchange Capacity
Example
In a certain field the following data is measured: E.S.P. measured =9%, C.E.C.=45.7meq/100g
The grower would like to achieve an E.S.P. of 2%. He must apply 3.2 litres per hectare of DispersaTom™:
(0.09-0.02)X45.70=3.2litres per hectare
Result
DispersaTom™ helps imporove the soil structure, increase the water retention capacity of the soil and improves root growth and absorbtion of nutrients.
Preparation of Mixtures
Before preparing a final mixture it is recommended to perform a compatibility test. Dispersatom™ is compatible with the most N-P-K fertilisers and phytosanitary sprays.
Avoid mixtures with products of acid reaction: Sulphuric acid and Phosphoric acid, etc as well as mixtures with products of alkaline reactions.
