Product Detail

Perlka is a general use, granular, nitrogen fertiliser, ideal for horse paddock applications, where nitrogen is the main nutrient required.

Perlka also has some unique properties over any other fertiliser. They include:

  • Contains lime (Calcium oxide) to raise a paddock soil pH
  • Sterilizing action on weeds and soil fungal diseases
  • Sterilizing action of soil parasites potential harmful to livestock
  • Contains slow release nitrogen, allowing higher doses to be used in single applications without promoting rapid grass growth spurts. This results in few applications.
  • Safe to livestock and horse.

This product is a reportable substance for the purposes of the Poisons Act 1972 and the Control of Poisons and Explosives Precursors Regulations 2015(1).
