Phosphates

Healthy Soils Life Phos

A prilled colloidal rock phosphate 2-4mm in size combined with a biological coating that includes a starting food source of fish and seaweed.

The biological coating includes a wide range of beneficial bacteria and fungi designed to enhance phosphorus release and availability, encourage atmospheric nitrogen fixation and assist decomposition of organic matter.

High Analysis (plant available from an independent laboratory).

  • Phosphorus available 10.97%.
  • Phosphorus total 11.85%.
  • Calcium 22%.
  • Silica 24%.
  • Phosphorus Citrate Soluble 10.58%.

Unique combination of colloidal soft rock phosphate and beneficial
biology with nature’s best feeders.

  • For Cropping, Pasture, Orchards and Vineyards.
  • Long lasting – controlled release of phosphorus.
  • Prilled for ease of application.
  • Designed to enhance the soil by providing balanced phosphorus and trace nutrients
    including plant available Silica.
  • Phosphorus availability and speed of delivery is increased through the utilization of colloidal soft rock phosphate, the inoculation of beneficial biology and feeders to enhance phosphorus release and availability.

Remarks

A microbial organism plate count carried out on this material gave a reading of 2.9 million colony forming units per gram of material.

Includes the following microbes combined with a starting food source
coating of fish and seaweed:

  • Azotobacter: Produce plant growth hormones.
  • Azospirillum: Free living nitrogen fixers-converting atmosphere nitrogen in the soil.
  • Bacilli: Lactic acid bacteria, helps with soil condition structure.
  • Cellulosic Fungi: One of the few decomposers of organic matter (cellulose) turning stubble into organic carbon.
  • Mycorrhiza: Nutrient converters and actively source phosphorus from the soil.
  • Phoshobacter: Converts phosphorus into plant available “P”.
  • Pseudomonas: Soldier bacteria – helps protect plants against fungal attack in the root zone.
  • Rhizobium: Legume nitrogen fixers.
  • Streptomyces: Bacteria that help control pathogenic bacteria.
  • Saccharomyces: Yeasts that convert carbon dioxide into sugars within the soil.
  • Trichoderma: Potential to control soil diseases including; Rhizoctonia, Fusarium, Armillaria, Pythium & Phytophthora.
As this is microbial stimulated the effects should be quick. This will assist also in releasing some of the locked up minerals & trace elements in the soil.
