Fertilisers
A range of fertilisers are available to compliment our range of soil conditioners to ensure that your soil can achieve its maximum, sustainable potential.
BULK PHOSPHATE ROCK
Our Phosphate is a natural, colloidal Australian mined product. It is microbe-friendly and is in a form where the P is both readily available and does not lock up to other cations such as calcium. Along with the P content, it contains a good level of calcium and has the extra benefit of additional silicon which is so vital for cell wall strength and its ability to help with the balancing of other nutrients. Australian phosphate is also one of the only sources that does not have a high level of the heavy metal, cadmium. We can supply it blended with extra Sulphur and its benefits will be greatly enhanced if blended with Humates at your farm.
BULK GUANO
Guano is another excellent source of natural Phosphate. Formed by ancient, decayed seabird droppings combining with coral, fish and seaweed, this is an organic product granulated to 2 - 5mm. It also contains good levels of Calcium and Silica along with many trace elements. We supply several types of Guano - all have 10-12% P, 24-39% Ca and 8-20% Si with options for products containing additional Sulphur (up to 12%). It is also a great soil conditioner, is non-leachable and can be blended with any other fertiliser. Supplied in 1 tonne Bulka bags or loose bulk, please contact us for full analysis of the various Guano products available.
ORGANIC POTASSIUM FERTILISER
Comprising of 20% Potassium, 16% Sulphur and 7% Magnesium, this is a BFA registered organic product. The benefit of this product over traditional Potassium products such as MOP is that it contains extremely low Chloride. This helps to prevent any build up of salts and is beneficial to a variety of Chloride sensitive crops, such as potato. This is available as a 2-5mm granulated product in 1 tonne Bulka bags or loose bulk.

We highly recommend regular Soil Tests between growing seasons when using chemical fertilisers. Not only will this ensure that the correct products can be applied at the recommended levels, but also because the use of them may result in an accumulation of heavy metals in soils and may lead to residue levels in plant and animal products in excess of the maximum level specified by the Australia and New Zealand Food standards code.
