Bulk Bag High Strength Balanced Paddock Fertiliser 16-16-16+5S (600kg)

This granular fertiliser is a great balanced fertiliser for a variety of crops including paddocks and pastures. It delivers equal amounts of nitrogen, phosphate and potassium, supplying and maintaining the three essential soil nutrients. Like for like, this product will supply more P & K than the 20.10.10 option, without oversupply nitrogen, so it great for restoring fertility to poorer soils.

The analysis 16.16.16 refers to the nutrient content of the fertiliser:

16% nitrogen (N), 16% phosphate (P), 16% potassium (K) + 5% Sulphur

Typical use rates depends on the crop you want to grow and how many times you wish to apply the product.

Application rates usually range from:

150 Kg/Ha (60 Kg/Ac) for grazing

225 Kg/Ha (90 Kg/Ha) for hay production

(Exact rates may vary and repeated applications may be required).

To accurately determine an application rate, we recommend you undertake a mail order Soil Analysis. We offer this speedy service for all types of crops and the results will enable our team of qualified agronomists to prescribe the exact fertiliser type and rate you need. This usually saves you money and improves soils through prescripted recommendations.

The granular fertiliser can be spread with a conventional farm fertiliser spreader or with our extensive range of smaller push-along or tow behind spreaders.

Delivery

For delivery, each 600Kg bag is secured to a pallet and unloaded from a tail lift vehicle. Once unloaded, it is the buyers responsibility to move the fertiliser from the unloading point to your secure storage either using the pallet or the integral lifting straps that form part of the bag. Obviously, some type of handling equipment will be required to move a 600Kg bag.

If you are attempting to order more than 2 x 600kg bags, we will need to process the order through our office. Please call 0330 165 5568. Once applied, allow 7-14 days before re-introducing livestock, or as long as is required for the fertiliser to disappear. This interval will be shorter if rain follows the application.
