YaraLiva TROPICOTE

YaraLiva TROPICOTE (15.5% N + 26.3% CaO) is a high-quality calcium nitrate product for field application. It is a dense granular fertiliser that spreads accurately up to 24 metres by machine or accurately when placed by hand.

It is a free-flowing material with 90% of articles 2-4mm. Its hygroscopic nature means that it readily dissolves on contact with the soil in humid conditions or a night dew. This formulation offers a low risk of scorch and is often used as a final top dressing to a wide range of high-value crops.

The benefits of using YaraLiva TROPICOTE

  • Spreads evenly up to 24 metres
  • Dissolves readily on contact with damp soil
  • Low risk of scorch
