Description:

AGRIVENTURE CALCIUM NITRATE 11% is a specialized liquid or water-soluble fertilizer used in agriculture to supply plants with readily available calcium and nitrate nitrogen. It strengthens cell walls, prevents physiological disorders like blossom-end rot, and promotes vigorous, high-quality crop growth.

Technical content: CALCIUM NITRATE 11%

Key Features & Benefits:

• Strengthens Cell Walls: Calcium is crucial for cell elongation and division, making plant cell walls stronger and protecting plants against physical stress and cracking.
• Improves Shelf Life & Produce Quality: Firms fruits and vegetables, preventing issues like blossom-end rot in tomatoes and bitter pit in apples.
• Provides Dual Nutrition: Supplies immediate, easily absorbable Nitrate Nitrogen alongside secondary nutrient Calcium, driving vigorous vegetative and root development.
• Better Disease Tolerance: Sturdy cell structures make plants healthier and naturally more resilient to pests and diseases.
• Enhances Nutrient Uptake: Aids in the absorption of other vital trace elements and minerals like Potassium.100% Water Soluble: Can be efficiently delivered via drip irrigation (fertigation) or leafy foliar sprays without leaving residues.

Crops suitability: Universally suitable for virtually all crops,

Commonly used for (Insect / Diseases):

• Blossom-End Rot: Prevents and treats black, sunken lesions on the bottoms of tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants.
• Bitter Pit: Helps prevent dark, bitter spots in apples and other orchard fruits.
• Tip Burn: Reduces browning and dying of leaf margins in lettuce, cabbage, and other leafy greens.
• Fungal & Pathogen Resistance: Strengthens the cell walls and tissues to physically block fungal infections and pathogens.
• General Pest Resilience: Healthy, sturdy plants are biologically better equipped to tolerate and resist sap-sucking pests.

Mode of entry: Systemic

Mode of action:

• Rapid Nutrient Uptake: Both the calcium and nitrogen ions are highly water-soluble, allowing plants to absorb them immediately upon application through roots or leaves.
• Cell Wall Fortification (Calcium): Calcium acts as a building block for calcium pectate, which binds plant cells together. This strengthens tissues, preventing physical disorders like fruit cracking, blossom-end rot, and bitter pit.
• Vegetative Growth & Metabolism (Nitrate-N): The nitrate form of nitrogen stimulates amino acid synthesis and chlorophyll production without lowering the soil pH.
• Stress Resistance: It helps neutralize toxic organic acids in plants and supports root development, enhancing overall tolerance to environmental stresses.

Mode of application: Foliar Spray, Fertigation / Drip Irrigation, Soil Drench / Root Application

Dose: 15 - 20ml in 15-liter water

Additional information:

• Ideal Timing: Apply during the early growth stage, pre-flowering stage, and fruit formation stage (when calcium demand is at its highest).
• What NOT to do: Do not mix Calcium Nitrate with fertilizers containing sulfates or phosphates (such as DAP or MAP) in the same tank, as this can cause precipitation and clog your equipment.
