Localized fertilization in the planting furrow, is a practice that is becoming increasingly popular in all Italian areas.
By means of this technique, the farmer maximizes the efficiency of fertilization because: by depositing fertilizer in the seed furrow, all the elements it contains are readily assimilated, both during germination and during radicle development.
What are the benefits of localized fertilization?
1) Better absorption of nutrients by the seed and rootlet because they are localized in the seeding furrow.
2) Increased root development.
3) Rapid starter effect
4) Increased vigor of the crop.
5) Increased resistance to water and mechanical stresses due to greater development of the root system.
6) Better absorption of phosphorus because it is localized near the seed.
In this regard, EURO TSA has developed the MICROSEED LINE: a line of microgranular fertilizers that can be localized using the MICROSEED KIT.
The MICROSEED KIT consists of a stainless steel hopper on a telescopic stand adaptable to any type of machine whether mechanical or pneumatic.
What are the features of the MICROSEED KIT:
1. Stainless steel 304 hopper .
2. Number of outputs adjustable according to the number of rows.
3. Modular composition hoppers also adaptable on pneumatic seeders.
4. Easy-to-use control unit.
5. Remote programmable control unit by remote control.
6. Automatic and homogeneous distribution according to feed rate.
MICROSEED are microgranular fertilizers developed through an innovative manufacturing process to obtain perfectly spherical microgranules ideal for localized fertilization.
The main features that distinguish the MICROSEED LINE are:
1. Small diameter between 0.3-1.0 mm.
2. Reduced moisture content of 1% determining theabsence of dust in the distribution phase.
3. Homogeneous chemical composition of each individual microgranule.
4. Total availability of phosphorus because it is chelated by an organic matrix
5. Practicality in storage and handling.
6. Distributional homogeneity in the seeding furrow.
7. High smoothness during distribution.
